HOW THE DEAD DREAM by Lydia Millet

A book review.


HOW THE DEAD DREAM felt like a few distinct story lines that never came together, as though the book was actually four short stories that happened to have the same lead character. As soon as I became invested in one of the stories, it ended, never to be revisited.

The writing was perfectly fine, but I didn't feel satiated at the end of it. I would recommend this to someone who's in the mood for short stories with open endings. **

Rating System:

**** = Amazing, Fantastic, Life-Changing
*** = Excellent & Worth a Read
** = Not a Complete Waste of Time but I Probably Wouldn't Recommend It
* = Blech!

And I don't do that half-star nonsense.
