I wouldn't recommend reading this book as anything but a learning resource. The stories are really short and the writing often uses what I'd call a cliché literary language. It should be a comfortable read at N2 level.

第一个故事挺好。

[Sei · Rating 5 out of 5]

この本は、予想を裏切る展開と緊張感溢れるストーリーで、最後まで目が離せませんでした。

物語は、ほんの5分後に起こる出来事が大きな運命を変えるという独特の設定で進んでいきます。登場人物たちの思惑が絡み合い、誰が信頼できるのかが分からないまま進行します。その中でも「赤い悪夢」と呼ばれる要素が、物語の緊迫感を一層高めています。

結末は予測できないほど意外で、最後まで読む価値があります。非常に引き込まれる内容で、続きが気になって仕方がありません。謎解きやサスペンスが好きな人にはぜひ読んでほしい一冊です。

A collection of short stories with a twist ending that's suppose to surprise you or catch you off guard. Unfortunately, if you have been using the internet long enough, you'd have heard or read most of the short stories in here already in a much shorter form like an interesting facebook status or a forwarded mail.

The book seems to collect many of those very very short interesting stories from the west and add spices to it by making it longer. But if you've read those already, it's so obvious that they are unnecessarily extended in order to misdirect you so you'll be surprised by the ending. There are some good stories in here, but I found the poor attempt to extend the story boring. It isn't fun when you bet everything on the twist and the reader already know what the twist will be by the second paragraph of the story.

To practice my Japanese, I read this book of short stories. I read several other Japanese books this year, too, but apparently I can't add books anymore on Goodreads, so I can't add all of them. This one was a bunch of translated short stories, including things like The Monkey's Paw and other familiar tales, and some I was unfamiliar with. One I vividly remembered reading when I was a kid, so it was really fun to reread it now as an adult in another language.
