Cat Pictures Please and Other Stories by Naomi Kritzer
4.0
well this was a disturbingly accurate supposition of how my life has been for pretty much the last year and a half. it is creepy and off - putting how prescient this story was. it was well written, and i really liked the format of recipe blogging - i thought it was interesting and i hadn’t seen it done before. but mainly this was just a bizarre read, from 2015 predicting 2020 and 2021, by accident, with pinpoint accuracy.
i have to say - i thought this was heading in the ~cannibalism~ direction and i’m a little disappointed it didn’t, because theme wise it didn’t really hold up to other short stories in the 2016 hugo long list anthology. but it was well written and disturbing to read so it gets stars!!
