Something Completely Odd

by Chris Dyer

Being odd isn’t such a bad thing… we all are in our own way. So many things in life are odd and if we only look a little closer then perhaps we can accept “oddness” rather than shun it. As you walk down the street wonder to yourself as you look at the things that surround you and think… that’s odd… is it really and if it is either realise that underneath we are just as odd to others (and in that I include everything human or otherwise) so we have a responsibility to either accept it or try to change it… the choice is yours but please before deciding think carefully, quite an odd thing to ask really but then not being odd is in itself rather odd.

Reviews

[Kevin Cannon (Monty's Book Reviews) · Rating 4 out of 5]

A delightful collection of short poetry, stories and opinion that in turn both entertain and make you think. It is a mixture of items both humorous and serious which, in places, had me reciting aloud to my family a few of the poems which made me laugh - Telly, My Little Friend and Bert in particular.

'Blue' would make a great meme and may end up in a frame on the wall at home

The opinion pieces which the author classifies as ramblings are all aimed at making the world a better place to live and should be commended.

The short fiction piece gives you cause to think about your environment and the detrimental effect we, as a race, are having on the planet.

The lighter pieces of poetry are fun to read, especially aloud, and the more serious pieces create scenes which make good points for discussion or thought

I really enjoyed most of the pieces in the book and will definitely return to it to reread my favourite pieces again and again
