challenging relaxing slow-paced

• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.5

This style of writing is particularly hard for me to read because it's just vibes, but it's vibes that unsettle me with their realism. There were four separate works in this volume, and each one was more plotless than the last.

I gave this a 4 when I read it in 2013 but I must’ve been high, or else I read a very different edition.
