This is an excellent collection of science fiction short stories about love, grief, loneliness, and trauma. Thought provoking, this collection has a dystopian element that makes it impossible to put down. There is some adult language but it’s used appropriately.

This collection had my mind swirling with philosophical thoughts. Is our current perception of reality really correct? Can marketing change living conditions? These stories seemed plausible to me and while I couldn’t put it down, I also needed many cups of tea. It was a terrific way to spend a Sunday,

Thank you to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for an eARC in exchange for my honest review!
