Scott Holleran's collection of short stories challenges you to look beyond the surface and connect with the deeply human desires of wanting love, respect, and the freedom to make your own decisions. There is a wide variety of stories from slice of life to dystopian fiction, all written tastefully, so the reader can immerse themselves completely. From stories like "Strapped," where you connect with Sammy's defiance against adversity, to "His, Hers, and Us," which explores apathy in relationships, there is something for everyone.
I look forward to Volume 2 onwards.
