The words that come to mind when I think about the storytelling in this collection are tender, immersive and empathetic.  The stories revolve around the barrage of emotions that people experience in the course of living and interacting with others. 

Uche’s a brilliant writer and I liked the way and manner in which the themes were explored even if I often felt that she played it too safe.
