A Blind Man Can See How Much I Love You by Amy Bloom
1.0
I wanted to like this book. I did...
A very forgettable book. A collection of stories about the hardships of love, the good and the bad and the ugly. And there was a lot of ugly. Surprisingly, as I'm flipping through this book now, I dogeared so many pages. I know some lines moved me but not significantly. Will say this: the first two stories have a fascination and longing and a weird way of maintaining a cishet narrative and that sucks because they're the two with gay and trans characters. I mean there's a story with incest later on too so there's enough to despise. The last time I instinctively pink a pretty pink book from a free little library.
