The Dark and Other Love Stories by Deborah Willis

2.0

As I've seen a few other people point out, these stories had a penchant for pairing grown men with precocious young girls. Actually, these stories had a preoccupation with big age differences in general. It made me really uncomfortable. Many of the stories were just downers, I felt hopeless when I finished them, and rather frustrated. They just seemed like they were supposed to have a lot of meaning, they were written like they had a lot of meaning, but I just found a lack of meaning. I don't know. Mostly I was confused, bored, frustrated, depressed, etc. I considered dropping it quite often.

"Last One to Leave" was cute, though.

Oh, and for a bunch of stories centered around all the different forms of love, there sure weren't enough queer relationships.
