I will read the second book in the series, but this one was kind of whatever. Not great, but not horrible. I think the second book will be better. PLEASE LOOK FOR TRIGGER WARNINGS!!!!!!

I really enjoyed this series of short stories. They offer a glimpse into life in Iraq during the Iraq War and the impact the United States invasion had on the country. I think the writing was good and the stories were all interesting and unique.
My favorite stories were The Corpse Exhibition, The Madman of Freedom Square, A Thousand and One Knives, and The Iraqi Christ.

I really enjoyed the first part of this book. The beginning of the second part, though, was not my favorite. I felt the momentum we had built disappeared. It's not that I didn't like Ori, I just felt the section was too separate from the rest of the book. However, it later picks up again. I enjoyed the different perspectives and did not find it confusing at all. I think you just need a second to figure out who's perspective is who's. I especially loved the sections from the house's POV. I think it's a pretty good modern gothic that addresses important topics.

Whether you love to hate or hate to love 'em, these literary bad girls are anything but well-behaved. *Disclaimer: we do not literally support the illegal and oft cruel behavior of these protagonists (usually); we support the authors bold enough to write them (always).
