4.0
I have a bit of a hard time with anthologies because there tend to be many stories with no plot tying them together and at some point I just want it to be over. I know this technically isn’t an anthology but it comes close enough and while I appreciate what the book is doing with all the different characters covering multiple generations it was just too many for me to follow at some point. Really enjoyed the ones I can actually remember though!
