There are 11 short stories in this collection, and overall this was a solid "it was good, I liked it" read for me. The first 5 stories really wowed me, I definitely enjoyed the last story, but the others in between didn't have the same impact. I found my mind wandering as I read. Sara Rauch has a knack for telling people stories, though, getting to the heart of what motivates and moves her characters and how they interact with each other. Her writing flows easily and is filled with warmth, even when exploring darker themes. If you love character-driven short stories, be sure to check out this book.
