Roar: Thirty Women, Thirty Stories

This was really not my favorite short story collection I ever read. I still gave it three stars, because I enjoyed some stories throughout. Honestly, I found a lot of them kind of forgettable. The final story, which the collection is named for I didn't enjoy at all. In fact, by the time I got there I was just trying to power through to the finish.
When I started the book I felt really enthusiastic, a book about women making it through situations, coming out on top, discovering themselves... but it really got tedious... “The Woman Who...” such and such. Over, and over, and over. And, in the end, it was entirely forgettable. Still, it wasn't bad enough I cast it aside. Nor did I rush to pick it up and complete it in one or two sittings. So, there we have it. A thoroughly average book.
