Just as the title says, just small stories about people from a neighborhood, with some characters interlocking through other stories as in real life. The stories don't need to make sense all the time or be thoroughly complete, as, like in real life, most of the time we only get one small piece of a seemingly larger puzzle we know nothing about.

Me sobbing over the last pages of this book: MAKTUB DX

WHAT in the name of eugenics IS THIS?!

Bloody, gory, and beautifuly written, the brutal remaster of King Arthur was definetly something I didn't know I needed in my life.

Essentially a book about a maturing teenager psychopath's daily life. That's it.

That is until the last two chapters of the book that essentially hog tied me, put an apple in my mouth and roasted me evenly over a fire until I was evenly cooked.

Man, I'm with Cain on this one.

Honestly one of the best philosophy books I've ever read. I highlighted so many different paragraphs that I loved, and learning so much only made me want to dive deeper into the subject. Not only that, I think it's a very important book to read, as it teaches you about critical thinking, how to make good arguments, listen well, and become a better person.

What the FUCK did I just read, and WHERE is the bleach for my eyes and brain?!

GASP! She was with a gay guy the WHOLE TIME!

This is literally just how my brain works in a day to day setting. Hey, while approaching an escalator, let's think about the military I bought and how I could've handled that interaction differently.

Very interesting and well informed with it's history, influences into modern culture, and how the science evolved overtime. However, the way explained was fairly dull and dry. It was like enjoying a new flavor of jam on a piece of dried out burnt toast.

This book had no right to make me sob as many times as it did

Suffering... endless suffering...

I should not have picked this book up thinking it would help with my father issues - I cried more times in an hour for the first time in eight years. Thanks, Kafka.

"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." Holy GOD I wanted to crawl through the book and shake her by the shoulders and scream it!!!

A thrilling splatterpunk book - may have been gory and gross for the sake of being gory and gross, but damn, reading this while listening to The Substance soundtrack was a mood.

I have an interesting story behind this book before my review starts. When I first learnt about the Holocaust when I was about fourteen by looking around on Wikipedia, and I went to my mom asking if she knew what it was, she pivoted, and looked like "It's time for the talk." After a brief lesson on what the Holocaust was, she told me, "You're skipping school tomorrow and coming to the mall with me."

She bought me Night and just simply told me to read it that day. I started in the ride home, and never stopped this memoir. As you're reading it, and you're reading it as if you're experiencing it for the first time, I see why my mom bought it for me the very next day I asked about the Holocaust and what happened.

In my opinion, I think this is one of the most vital books about the Holocaust that's ever been written, and it's one everyone needs to read at least once in their entire lives.
