Each story is somehow less interesting than the last but since the first story (It is with the Deepest Sincerity that I Offer Prayers…) is very interesting, the book is still readable. It's not really biology-scifi but ecology-epistemologyfi, so plot-wise, the closest point of resemblance is probably The People In The Trees by Hanya Yanagihara.
