Giving a grading to this book is challenging since I loved 2 out of 4 stories (the 1st and 3rd), found the 2nd one very disturbing, and the 4th one as well to some extent. In particular, the 4th story involves the author herself, as a particularly despicable character, which… is strange to write about yourself. I am left wondering if that story is based on true events, which would be pretty bad to say the least.
At the end of the day, though, I loved the author’s writing style, which led me to grade it 5* anyway.
I am surprised by the others complaining about lack of punch, since I found all stories except the second one had an impactful ending. On the other hand, the second story was bad vibes all around and would probably justify a trigger warning: stalking. Contrary to the other 3, I also found the end unsatisfying too (but it’s compensated by the writing style, so it’s not so bad).
It was my first book by this author, but I will definitely read more.
