This collection of short stories is quickly becoming my primary resource for the structure and organization of short story writing.
It is a wonderful collection of stories that contain depth and characters that are developed enough to establish true interest in the reader.
I appreciated the precise moment the author decided to end each story so as to create just the right amount of suspense and reader satisfaction.
These stories are definitely worth a read.
