Actually reading this one now. Heheh…

“Cops and criminals, two sides of the same coin.”

CALLBACK ALERT TO OF MONSTERS AND MAINFRAMES💕💕💕💕💕

Oh Lordy this one’s pulling emotions out of me. I fear I’m going to love this book.

I LOVE the little squirrel sized tid bits at the bottom of each page. Almost missed them!

Only one more story to go. Thank god.

“She pulled him over to her lap; he turned and pressed his face into his mother’s breasts.”
?????? This is the sixth nonsensical mention of her breasts in this goddamn short story I am going to LOSE IT. BLATANT creepy man author alert!!!!! Writing your lesbian fetish into your“serious” fiction about Society™ isn’t just tone deaf, it makes me feel like a slab of meat. Just gross, dude.

Also I’m sure in some world this certainly counts as dialogue but this kid scene is making realize that this author has never witnessed a real conversation before.

If this man says breasts ONE more time I’m gonna fuckin LOSE it

Hm

After each story I kinda go “Hm.”

So, many, commas,,,,

I’m encountering a lot of copy errors in this book. Very distracting. Also, I can’t help but think of this as Black Mirror The Book™

Haunting

“Behind her defiance was a terrible desperation: a woman who had always been able to simply physically impose her will on the world, who now had to ask its permission and the permission of her own body.”

HEARTBREAK OF THE CENTURY

Beautiful and heartbreaking

“Oh, you fucker!” Is the most hilarious and apt reaction to betrayal I have ever read.

“That is the way things are.”

“Things are the way we make them.”

Chapter 24???? ARE WE GONNA TALK ABOUT CHAPTER 24?????????

GIVE IT UP FOR CHAPTER 22!!!

Hot chapter alert! Give it up for chapter 19!

I admit, I may have shed at least one tear.
