This is easily one of the strangest books I've read in my life. The content of the stories and where they are heading is completely unexpected and their content varies from reflective pieces to some of the most bizarre literature I have come across. There are absolutely amazing stories that break the boundaries of imagination, but also quite a few stories that just make you go "meh". I enjoyed parts of it but I don't think I'll return to the author.
Graphic: Sexual content, Death, Cannibalism, and Body horror
Moderate: Pregnancy, Medical content, and Vomit
Minor: Animal death and Stalking
