Loved it - a bit disturbing and life affirming in perfect measure. Can’t wait to read more of her work. Gripping stories, interesting characters - all weird and beautiful.

Interesting collection of short stories. Reminds me a bit of Her Body and Other Parties. I liked some of the stories more than others, like Fried Dough, the one about Florida, and the woman whose husband died. Some felt a bit too experimental and confusing to me
