I'm not a fan of short stories, but these were so well written that it was enough for me to finish the book. Most of the stories are very dark and scary. As far as I can remember all of them are magical realism from the pov of lesbian women, and mostly they revolve around sexism, sex, physical and mental illnesses. I skipped one of them though ("Especially Heinous" since I don't know the Law&Order series and figured the story would make not much sense to me). I really liked "The Husband Stitch" (omg it made me angry enough to kill), "Inventory" and "The Resident".
