Oh this is great! It's rare to have a book of short stories where every single one was five stars for me, but this one is amazing. I loved the way they weaved together with the idea that there was an connection but without the book ever spelling it all out. It assumes the reader is smart enough to pluck all the threads and find the whole tapestry. Insightful, sometimes funny, and always full of people who feel as if they are sitting right next to you, they are that real. This book is probably going to be on my top of 2021, I can just tell already.
