Note: I read this on audiobook but I have the physical version. I wanted to rate each story individually (which I might go back and do) but as I am sitting here I do not have it on me.
I have never read short stories on audio before so this was a new experience. I enjoyed Arthurs work immensely. Each of the stories were memorable. The characters were memorable. I did not feel recycled in terms of characters' actions. The title story did stick out to me. ALL of the stories were wonderful though. The length of the stories differed which was great for me. Arthurs writing was reflective and astute.
