Honestly, I was so sick of reading this book I skipped the last story. I did enjoy a couple of the stories, "Aren't You Dead Yet", "A Dog Story" and "The Joy of Cooking" but the other stories just didn't hit it for me. I might revisit those particular stories at some point, but I don't see myself revisiting this collection.

Maybe I just need to read more short stories.

Wonderful collection of delicately interwoven stories detailing experiences of different women and girls. Loved it and am hungry for more of Schappell's work.
