Here's roach: a love story

A cockroach awakes one morning to find themselves transformed into a monstrous human. This is only the first in a series of increasingly disconcerting events for the now human teenager. It will not be long before Roach has firsthand knowledge of many aspects of the human experience, including: broken bones, broken hearts, bigotry and sadness; but also: Love, which in humans comes in many forms. So, that's nice, but will love be enough to make it all worth it?

(you can also get it free elsewhere, including on my website (https://ater.neocities.org/books/mybooks), it's all the same to me)

No. 29, “ – shiver & headache – ”. Rough pavement stretches away, ruddy with old mud and a bit of dried grass growing there at the verge, and scattered across it dozens if not hundreds of oblong greenish kernels of shattered safety glass, the detritus of a broken car window like so many forgotten gems.

The 29th novelette, " – shiver & headache – ", continues, but like I said—watch carefully for the changes:
