  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

The book is worth a read for the titular story alone, which is novella-sized and is a richly imagined modern version of The Parable of the Sower minus the religion. The rest of the stories were hit or miss for me.
