Severance is one of my favorite books, so I was very, very excited to receive this ARC! Bliss Montage is a collection of short stories that follows in the same vein as Severance, in that they are dark, sometimes grim, and definitely surreal. I would compare it to the feel of Black Mirror, specifically the episodes that focus on social issues (like the video game lovers or social media one).
Most of the stories were really intriguing. I loved G, Returning, Office Hours, and Tomorrow for how bizarre and sometimes dark they were, and I think that's where her writing shines the most. Peking Duck was another favorite for the double perspective we got about the same scenario, which completely changes how the reader views the mother. Love that kinda thing.
My only complaint with the book was that it felt like the stories ended just a few pages too soon! I love a good abrupt ending, but for me, I feel like I didn't get enough details from the story to piece together an ending of my own. I felt this the most with Returning and Office Hours, and a little bit with Tomorrow.

Favorite quotes:
"It is in the most surreal situations that a person feels the most present, the closest to reality."
"An ideology defined only by what it opposes is doomed to be defined by that exact thing."

Overall, a really excellent read and one I would recommend to others. Thanks to NetGalley for the advance copy!
