The Dangers of Smoking in Bed by Mariana Enríquez

3.5

it explores themes that are borderline disgusting!!! and i loved every second of it!! its rotting and flies buzz around it. it has a stench thats like food left in the sun all day. i loved most of the stories but i hate that most of them were cut short or abruptly for the sake of being suspenseful but it rlly just left me unfulfilled and wanting more. overall i really enjoyed it and i love the background of buenos aires being a recurring theme, just stories that haunt the city and its people.
