Craigslist Confessionals tells multiple short stories in the point of view from each person. I picked up this book as I thought it would be an interesting read and love reading about secrets. I found half the stories very interesting and captured my attention, while some of the other stories fell short for me.

It was a hit or miss for me on the stories. Some of the stories were so raw and real that I had to struggle not to cry and felt so much emotion with them, while some of the stories that I didn't enjoy were due to the way the story was told. It either felt dry or some lacked emotion for me. Other stories, I simply didn't enjoy due to the fact that I felt no sympathy for them as most people get to where they are based on their own choices in life.

There are maybe two stories that stuck out to me that will stick with me for a long time, whether it was due to the strong emotions or the way that I felt I could in some way relate to their hardships. Overall, was a good short read that kept me interested. Would especially recommend to a friend who has a hard time being empathetic to others so they can get other points of view on loss, struggle, addiction and more.
