1.0

This book was really not my cup of tea at all. It didn't feel like any of the stories had almost any plot at all. The characters did some things, sure, but nothing actually happened in most of them. It was extremely boring. I also couldn't stand almost any of the characters. All of the men were completely abhorrent and all the women were mousy and timid, if not completely subservient to the male characters. Definitely would not recommend this book and won't be reading more of Katherine Mansfield's stories.
