These short stories are more like flash fiction, if you haven't read flash fiction before or even if you have, this collection is definitely one to pick up. The author does a great job telling a story in a few short pages and each has a great twisted ending. I loved the author's writing style and the great way of telling a tale. I will be looking for more from this author and so glad I found this collection.
