This really didn't work for me and I really hoped it would be my kind of book. I had to DNF it at 200 pages because I was bored and not wanting to read anything. Short stories are not usually my thing but I think following 8 characters and each story not really having a conclusion really made it worse.
I think it will be a really great book for some people, just not for me.
