“Babies weren't babies —they were land mines; bear traps; wasp nests. They were a noise, which was sometimes even not a noise, but merely a listening for a noise; they were a damp, chalky smell; they were the heaving, jerky, sticky manifestation of not-sleep.”

*⭐️⭐️ but only got through 5.5 of the short stories before abandoning … so yes technically I DNF but since it’s a book of short stories I’m counting it
Like any book of short stories some were good (like the Faery Handbag which honestly I would have read 500 pages on) and others were awful (The Canon).
