This book, Mildenhalls 3rd, was incredibly different to anything else I’ve read before. 
As a piece of writing this was extraordinary, covering past, present & future, environmental issues, social issues, relationships, it spanned the pandemic, the future of AI, & always slightly terrifying to me, a post apocalyptic world. 
Each story was entirely captivating in its own way. It was like reading four stories in one. The connections between them made me audibly gasp! 
The only thing I would mention about this book as a negative, was the ending, the closure… I just didn’t feel like I got enough information to walk away from these stories.
