It was beautifully written but it was hard for me to stay focused on the story. Also, the ending had me scratching my head.

It‘s always difficult to rate a short story anthology, but I did enjoy the interweaving of the setting of Sandy June‘s Drive-In and the magical realism aspect of it being set outside of time and space and appearing to people who needed it most. I didn‘t realize this was Young Adult, so a lot of the stories had to do with high school/coming of age.
After listening to the last sectioning and not absorbing anything and realizing after this weeks discussion that I‘m completely missing things, I‘m gonna bail. It seems my group is really “enjoying” it so I would feel bad giving this a bad rating when the problem may be either myself or the means in which I‘ve decided to read this. Maybe next time #sundaybuddyread
