To be totally transparent, I am not really a short story collection kinda gal. So take all of this with a grain of salt.
No One Belongs Here More Than You is a collection of well written but unsettling and weird short stories with an undercurrent of eroticism. I spent most of my time not really knowing what was going on, and the rest of my time feeling like I was in some kind of fever dream. It’s a real side step from the kind of things I usually read, in tone and style. It made me want to read a book about the author, but perhaps not another book by the author.
