Overall Feedback: I found this to be more of an opinion piece than short stories. The author has obvious talent and does well to show it in this work and I would recommend reading more of her work but this one would be for those that like to hear arguments about one's opinion. Although this was presented in fictional form I still had the feeling of a non-fiction.

Point of View: I felt the stories were more like a personal blog, so it felt 1st person.

Voice: Although the author does well to voice their opinions I felt it was more or less propaganda.

Plot: Although there are pieces that a tied together in commonality, most of the work is presented in what feels to be blog posts.

Pacing: The pacing is hurt by the feeling of stories not quite fitting in, therefore causing some re-reading of parts.

Continuity: Again because of some of the disjointedness of the stories you may find your mind wandering but overall a good outing by an obviously talented author.
