Okay, so I've finished this book and the best way I can describe it is that it's like the book version of Love, Death + Robots for those who've watched that show. Which is weird, because the way I would otherwise describe Love, Death + Robots to someone is "the show version of a short-story collection"!

All the stories are weird, but I'd say the later ones are maybe...slightly less weird? And they all leave something to think about. Also, for a few of them I noticed the endings aren't explicitly stated; they're left to your imagination but at the end of the story there's only one plausible conclusion that your imagination will be able to come up with.

Finished this on the bus on the way to Tabletop Thursdays/Board Game Night at Lahe Lahe in Indiranagar! It helped me not feel frustrated when the bus stopped in the traffic, instead taking those breaks as an opportunity to pull out my book ;)
