Type of read: Commuter Read.

What made me pick it up: I think I was just randomly browsing my library app and saw this one in the short stories. I think the description really helped lock it down for me. I also really liked the idea of short stories after going through a few books with ridiculously long chapters.

Overall rating: Here's the deal, I love a good short story. Something that gets your reader engaged, caring, and then lets them off the hook without having to stay up night after night finishing chapter after chapter is truly an art form. Well, an artform 'You Think It, I'll Say It' was not...at least for me. All of these stories were mundane and insignificant. And they all just ended. I mean obviously, a story needs to end, but these just ENDED. Either abruptly or like the author just got tired of the characters and felt like they needed to move on and never think of them again. After a few of the stories, I was waiting for them to have a connector, something that made them all similar or tied them together. But they didn't. But it felt like they should and that just left me annoyed, angry, and a bit confused at the structure of the book. Again, I get that it's short stories, but the way they are set up and told was absolutely not for me.

Reader's Note: I read this as an audiobook and tried to listen at my typical 1.5-2x speed. I couldn't. Not because I couldn't understand or take in the book, but because there are no logical pauses between the chapter narrations and the content is so drab it's honestly hard to tell when you move from one perspective to another.
