I did just pick this up off the shelf because of the title but I am a little disappointed at the lack of different time periods :( book is fine! Just not what I was expecting based on the title & blurb. My fave was the one with the cockroach women

A very unique and funny short story collection! I loved the binding themes of womanhood and also just sometimes bizarre, supernatural-ish elements. It kind of reminded me of Wake, Siren but more about tearing men apart and being messy and being in sisterhood with others. I might have enjoyed it more in reading a physical copy, just to fully grasp deeper meanings, but I did enjoy the performances in this collection!
