Am I really the first person to review this on Goodreads? Apparently so!
This is a multi-author anthology. Each author was asked to respond to the prompt "Hello Winter" so all of the book relates to the winter season or people whose first or last name is Winter.
The book was also prompted and written during the Covid situation, and several stories address Covid directly. The first story specifically relates the narrator's experiences at the beginning of the lockdowns - the uncertainty of what was coming next really brought that whole time period back to me in full force.
I enjoyed this collection a great deal. The audio was well done, with a separate narrator for each story.
