A look into all the different lives of a grocery store's workers. Kind of reminds me of the TV show Superstore, or one of those movies about a restaurant's wait staff.

It was an interesting read, as i love books where there are multiple stories that connect, but i felt like the stories didn'really connect, and that the story was too brief for readers to develop an attachement to any of the characters. I also felt like there were too many characters. There are more than what are named on the blurb.

For example, Chloe has a whole chapter on her, but after that, there isn't much about her, and some characters who didn't even get paragraphs make numerous appearences throught the book, and we have no knowledge of who they are besides a name. The concept was good, but i felt like the story was poorly conducted.

185 pages (my edition)
