A collection of four stories. The first one, Unauthorized Bread, hooked me in with its promising cast and tone. The completionist in me was reluctant to put it down, but I do advise that you do. The remaining three were tedious. Model Minority really asked me to put the book down. Radicalized is an easy-to-anger read. Masque of the Red Death I speed read for the stat.
