Cursed Bunny was one of my unexpected favorites of 2023, so I was excited to read Your Utopia. While Cursed Bunny leans more into horror, this collection of eight stories deals with futuristic technology and society.
tbh I am never sure if I GET short stories, but I enjoyed this collection! Standouts for me were "A Very Ordinary Marriage", in which a man realizes his wife is not who he thinks she is in more ways than one, "A Song for Sleep", in which I became emotionally wrecked from a story about an elevator, and "The Center for Immortality Research", in which office bureaucracy goes on.... immortally.
