I can't recommend this book enough. If you're a fan of short stories, fairytales, or enjoy a good metaphor, this is one to pick up! Each story explores a different facet of chronic illness / chronic pain, in a way that is feels so vivid that you can't help but relate to. I can't wait to read more from Heather Russell-Kay!
