I rated it two stars initially, but I actually said out loud “Thank God” when I turned the last page, so that's not accurate.
This twee, confusing collection was a finalist for the Pulitzer, which means that even though I have a master's from Boston University and have been reading for over forty-six years, I apparently know nothing.
I feel really grumpy and out-of-sorts now. Uncomfortable. I should not feel this way after reading a book. One of the stories gave me a nightmare last night. You can tell how off I feel because I hardly ever leave reviews like this.

The Land of Oz theme park really existed. Link gets no credit for that. I went there as a child. I feel rather “get off my lawn” about this point.

Ugh. I feel weird. I need a hug and maybe a hot toddy.
