While I’m typically not a huge fan of short story collections, as usually only a few stories resonate with me, this one was an exception. Many of the stories were memorable, fun and super weird. I’m always up for super weird. There were also some more serious themes hidden within (like motherhood) that make me want to reread some of the stories at a later time in my life.

This book is perfect for sparking a casual conversation with, “I read an interesting story today,” only to take a twist and recount the most bizarre, gut-wrenching tale they've ever heard. I’ve done that multiple times already and got myself uninvited to at least two parties.

My favourites were The Head, The Embodiment, Scars and Reunion.
