This was beautiful and different and made me feel like I was suspended in something I didn't quite understand.

Full disclosure, full honesty, no spoilers. I am ashamed to say that I didn't enjoy this as much as I would have liked. I did like a couple of the one-acts. But overall, this just really didn't do it for me. This makes me think of that one guy on twitter who makes a bot watch like 1000 hours of something and then the bot writes it's own little screenplay of the thing. If I didn't know any better I would say that this book is a collection of one-acts that someone put together after they made their bot watch 1000 hours of that guy's bot's show and THEN made a book out of it. I am all for quirky writing and off-the-wall things but in my opinion, it was just much too scatterbrained and dizzy.

Is this a good book? Um, many people would probably enjoy this quirky little thing, but it just wasn't for me.

Would I recommend to a friend? No.

Would I purchase this book for my personal collection? No.

Creative, fun, and touches the heart, Exit, Pursued, has an awareness of the limits of the one-act play format, and leans into them, acknowledging the audience, their expectations, and the reader watching from the outside. Lovely start to the year.
