•We are surrounded by awkwardness because of the different types of people around us. Not everyone has the sensibility to do things the way they should; some people try for everything and then make the decisions. In this whole process, they have so many doubts and with each step it gets clear. Let's read something like this introducing TEMPORARY SANITY by MILES HOOPER. The cover page is intriguing with lots of content on it.

•The book is set in 2010's Phoenix, Arizona in many short stories form. Each one has its location, description, and characters making it more enjoyable while reading. There are a total of 10 short stories, each describing their part of dark questions. The first story title is Death and Scotch, as the name suggests it has a very different type of storyline. Here a person named Marvin meets Mr. Death who was busy chatting with his wife and trying to convince her that he will come home soon. As Mr. Death's wife is leaving with the children because he is doing too much work and not at all focusing on them. The description by the author has a different kind of sense of humor which makes it more enjoyable.

Let's read this humor created by the author. Buy your edition now!

•The book's written way is very different, the way the author has set the plot for each of the short stories is nice. The description is not that realistic and this makes it more fun to read. The author has tried to provide the slightest details in the story so we can imagine it quite clearly in our minds. Every story is unique and fun to read!
