Ouch! Such a set of stories of ugly, grim lives. Painful, unhappy lives.
Normally, I place my read books in Little Free Libraries for others to enjoy. I'll be throwing this book in the trash with the hope the trash collector doesn't find it.
That said, it was a well written collection of stories, which is why I'm giving it 5 stars despite my personal distaste of the characters. As I tell myself every day, "They didn't wake up this morning and say, 'I want to be an addict and mess up the rest of my life!'"

"This It How It Always Is" is a wonderful story about traversing the waters of raising a transgender child.
