I think this is a really fantastic anthology of short stories. Margret is a fantastic writer, and the stories were engaging even while being very short. I just want to note one thing, and I've noted it in the other books she's written: Margret does this thing where she identifies non-white characters by their race, but doesn't do the same for white characters. Whenever a characters race is described, it is always as non-white. The rest of the time characters races aren't discussed, and I'd assumed them to be white. It's just a little weird, and I appreciate that she has marginalized characters in her work, I just wish she would identify white characters the same way.
