DNF I had a hard time following the stories and for awhile thought it was me. But when I read one paragraph and the direct next paragraph had entirely different characters and seems to take place in a different era, I gave up.

After reading Life After Life I had been on a mission to read more Kate Atkinson. This collection of stories was fun and weird and sometimes interconnected in a disjointed kind of way. I liked it.

A lot of fun, quirky characters and interplay between stories. I enjoyed the slow reveal of connection it made the whole book fun.

Curious group of characters and ideas interwoven into several stories. A bit fairy tale, a bit modern day.
