Nothing special, but enjoyable. Similar themes/characters across the stories.

A collection of short stories. I didn't really feel invested in any of them. Most dealt with relationship issues or similar, so it was just meh for me. Not terrible, not great.

This was an easy to listen to audiobook. The stories were engaging while listening, however I forgot a lot of the details very fast. Probably more on me as I listened to short stories as I have focus issues.
