I have to admit that I had high hopes for this book, but it ended up disappointing me. There were plot holes, the ending felt rushed, and the repeated scenes of eating eyeballs became tiresome. While I appreciate the writing style and the tragic nature of the characters, the overall execution fell short. I enjoyed reading it, but I was unhappy with how it turned out.
This one feels like all kind of fruits (bad and good) being thrown in a bowl. Some tastes good, some tastes sour, some makes you regret the first bite. Most of the stories are enjoyable but some are undeniably tough to read. But well, that's what you get from a short stories collection, I guess.
