The Opposite of Loneliness: Essays and Stories by Marina Keegan
3.0
*3.5 stars
Marina Keegan is obviously an amazing author; it was amazing how easily I was drawn into her stories even though they were all short. I truly enjoyed reading them so much, it is so sad to me that she didn't get the chance to continue her writing because I would have loved to read a novel by her.
That being said, I do wish that not all of her short stories were so negative. I feel like they were often very pessimistic and it would've been nice to see a little bit of optimism added in, but I still really did enjoy them. Her writing was truly magical.
