Good story bad value
Short but interesting. Not worth 3 bucks for a ten minute read. Stick with buying the main line series books.

A cute short story of a woman who took her dreams to reality
Coping mechanisms are as varied as the stars, so why not enjoy an age old tale through the magic of the System!

Mildly interesting glimpse into regular people’s lives in the system. But ultimately unfulfilling because it doesn’t go anywhere and I wouldn’t recommend the read.
