Get in Trouble by Kelly Link

3.0

---

I've always admired authors who can craft mind-boggling and inspirational tales in such short contexts. When I finished reading the first story in this collection I was unbelievably excited at the wonderfully strange tale. However, as I read further I became increasingly confused with some of the stories. Was it symbolic? Simply too complex for me to internalize fully? Or just outright random and weird? In the end I only ended up loving one story, the eerie "New Boyfriend" story. I think Kelly Link is a talented writer but I cannot fully appreciate the extent of her creativity.
