  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

The last one was my favorite (would rate that one 5 stars alone), but I found the others ended very abruptly. I usually love short stories that have an ambiguous ending, but when they all have an ambiguous ending, it’s hard to connect with them. 

Maybe I had my hopes set too high with how many people have raved about her writing? Maybe Milk Blood Heat just set my hopes for short story releases too high in 2021?

I hope Writers and Lovers is better suited to my tastes as it sits on my shelf right now
