This was a really interesting read as while this is a collection of short stories some felt like poems and some felt like watching part of a tv show you’ve never seen before. The characters were complex and dealt with a variety of emotions and questions in these peeks into their lives. I can’t say this was a super uplifting read but more a series of character studies of people with something missing or unfinished in their lives at the point we’re looking in. I liked some stories better than others of course but this was good for a quick read that was out of the box for my normal reading style.
