Author Zephyr Zywick has released her first book in a series called The Zephyr Collection, compiling a life of short stories, poetry, lyrics, essays and memoirs. Enjoy the popular story "Complicated" as well as many other of her personal favorites.
My feeling is of two stars, but I added one more for the cover (I like the red flying umbrellas!) and for the author's work, which I respect and know how involving it can be. The two stars derive from the style, which didn't grab me. The poetry and the short stories didn't "talk" to me. I'm usually grabbed by more intense and profound messages, stories, thoughts. But other than that, it's an okay little book, unpretentious, a pastime if you will, and if you don't expect anything more robust.
