short story collection, contemporary fiction
Goodreads says that Baby You're Gonna Be Mine is, "Filled with imagination and humor...an exuberant collection of captivating and charmingly bizarre stories that promise to burrow their way into your heart and soul."
I disagree. I really enjoyed Kevin Wilson's novel, The Family Fang, so I thought I'd give this book a try. Plus, the cover was interesting. Unfortunately the inside of Baby, You're Gonna Be Mine was not as interesting as the cover.
I just didn't connect with or relate to any of the stories, which I think might be a good thing because they were all pretty dark, strange, and unsettling. There were a few I liked reading more than others, but ultimately I'm not even sure why I finished the book other than that it was there. If you're into dark, strange, & unsettling stories perhaps you'll like this collection. Sadly, I did not.
