*I received a copy of this book through NetGalley*
Having grown up in Florida, I was excited to read these short stories and I really enjoyed the descriptive language and prose that the author used throughout the book. I liked the diversity of stories in this collection; the first was filled with symbolism and metaphors, others were puzzle pieces showcasing different members of a queer friend group, and some were seemingly unrelated but still felt at home among the others stories. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect going in to this book, but I came out of it having enjoyed my time and with a longing to find myself back in the Florida sun after so long in the cloudy UK.
