Cursed Bunny was one of my favorite books in 2023, so I was super excited to pick this up. Sadly, I wasn't as in love with this one as I was with Cursed Bunny, but there are definitely a few stand outs that I enjoyed.
A few of the stories seemed more like 'ideas' of stories rather than an actual short story. That is why I loved Cursed Bunny - there felt like a full beginning, middle, and end to most of the stories and like the full spectrum of the idea came across. Here, some of them felt just like longer stories that were condensed.
My favorites were probably A Very Ordinary Marriage (super creepy!!!) and Seed.
