Many wonderful story elements which stick with and linger in your mind. I think there's a bit of tendency to only read the first set of stories and skip the back half of the book, since they don't directly relate to the titular fiction. But they weave thematic threads and vague connections which work very well together.

Unfortunately the Jungian analysis requires a level of buy-in that i just don't think is justified. it's an interesting breakdown of feminine cultural signifiers but like a lot of Jung it extrapolates socially constructed traits into metaphysical universal truths with little proof or reasoning beyond assertion. Not really worth the time alas

A fantastically fun series of thought experiments, only occasionally brought down by the somewhat cringey nerd humour you would expect of an American.

Occasionally hampered by not explaining what exactly a dish is, but a wonderful collection of cooking tips and recipes for artful meal planning and easy preparation

reading one book by Carl Sagan and immediately Getting It. what a good lecturer, truly the intellectual that every hack Atheist wishes they could be

A delightful tour through the history of women's basketball. i was looking for an introduction to get into following the game, and i walked out knowing names, stories, and some of the awesome victories of the sport. Can't think of a better intro to the sport, and the art was all very cute too.
