end times is 5 stars alone...some of the short stories were not for me but spud and spud, end times, habitat, excitable creatures and disruption were amazing
end timed stood out to me the most because of how human it was. the entire laying rocks sequence and how the world ending seems like something so small and mundane next to the grief that son and husband had for the narrator. also loved how we get to see grief from the side of the person being grieved and, in general, i loved seeing the idea that time is experienced differently by everyone applied so cleverly into a story using footnotes!
idk how to explain these stories other than whimsical, magical and human. also love the unique takes on narrating, loved the use of footnotes, the use of the second POV and the alternating perspectives in the spud and spud stories
