In lieu of flowers, please wear a Hawaiian shirt to the memorial service. Or a funny t-shirt. Wear sandals with your cargo shorts.

‘It was lovely watching them die.’ A killer first sentence, and a killer story (metaphorically and non-metaphorically speaking) by Christina Dalcher. Love the way ‘Weeknights at Cafe Suicide’ unfolds, the perfect pacing, the deliciousness of that ending. Awesome story.
Loved Christina Dalcher’s “Weeknights at Cafe Suicide.” Full of surprises. Great adjectives and descriptions of the food, which tended to become less appetizing as the story progressed.
Thank you so much, Sophie and Dorothy! Glad you liked it. Or that it horrified you. 🙂
