This book is really intense. Some stories are deeply beautiful, some are a mindfuck bloodbath rampage, and some aren’t particularly good. It was a slow read for me as I had to put the book down after most of the stories and come back with a clear head for the next one. I don’t mean to imply that the violence/gore was particularly overwhelming, it’s just that many of the stories carried weight and depth that I had to take time to process.
