3.5

Honestly my rating would have been much better if it was just the first story (Diary of a murderer). I liked how unreliable the narration was and that you never knew what's true. It was really interesting. The second one I honestly barely remember. Same with the fourth. The third one wasn't as strong as the first but much better than the second and fourth. It's about a boy who gets kidnapped as a young child and is returned to his family a decade later. He believes his kidnapper to be his real mother and the family falls apart. I wish it was more indepth. It was just missing something but it wasn't bad.
