Title: I liked it but never found myself wanting to read the next story
Review: The short stories are well crafted but not pretentious or inaccessible in any way. I think it had more punch when it came out since ghosts and unicorns were still ironic, but it still has an impact. It's so completely feminine (I am a dude by the way) in a way that dudes can enjoy but not relate to - and sort of explains the actions of some of the fringy girls on the playground when I was growing up. The accounts of living in Echo Park seemed forced. There were only a few stories that really sucked me in - the rest seemed to try to create a mood but never went anywhere. I'd still recommend it though.
