mysterious
medium-paced

I got this book on a whim while trying to get discounts on two other books.
First impression was that i loved how teeny tiny this book is, and it'll do me good to finish it for funsies. Also, the premise sounded interesting!
After reading all three stories all i can say is "what the hell?" (complimentary). I enjoyed this book quite a bit. Yes, they're a set of very strange, puzzling, inconclusive stories; yes, you'll get more questions than answers by the end of each story but i really dig the vibe! Not all stories have to make sense!! And that's a-ok! Or!!! Maybe I'm just too stupid to get it!! And that's perfectly fine with me :)
