Not terrible but not amazing. I didn't realize it was short stories at first so after I figured that out it got better. Some parts were a bit confusing and harder to understand. I wasn't really able to connect with any of the characters or the stories, it felt like the stories could have gone deeper.

It seems as if the most interesting chapters were the shortest ones unfortunately.
