There were some highs and some lows for me in Danielle Evans’ “The Office of Historical Corrections”. I loved the novella and a couple of the short stories, but as an overall collection I didn’t love it. A nice 3 star read! … Read More Audiobook Review: The Office of Historical Corrections by Danielle Evans
A quick read, Graham Norton’s book ‘The Swimmer’ is quite a gripping read for such a short story. I liked the characters and I was really into the story, but less keen on the writing style – 4 stars.… Read More Book Review: The Swimmer by Graham Norton
“The Skylight” is a quick read that you can read in one go. It was a little too predictable for my tastes and I probably won’t be recommending it. A 2 star read for me.… Read More Book Review: The Skylight by Louise Candlish
An eclectic collection of stories with some connection to libraries. I quite liked Ali Smith’s ‘Public Library and Other Stories’, an enjoyable 3 stars from me!… Read More Audiobook Review: Public Library and Other Stories by Ali Smith
“Stories to Make You Smile” is an enjoyable read that you can pick up for free. A great way to get into reading and discover new authors. I didn’t love all the stories, but it was still a nice 3 star read.… Read More Book Review: Stories to Make You Smile
“Parable” is a lovely story about one man’s love for his dog. It’s a poignant read and one that’ll make you smile, and possibly cry! This was a great 5 star read for me.… Read More Book Review: Parable by Jess Walter
“Before Her” is a short memoir of Jacqueline Woodson’s romantic history. It’s warm and moving in places. I didn’t love it, but it was really enjoyable – I’m giving my first read of The One collection 3 stars.… Read More Book Review: Before Her by Jacqueline Woodson
A quick read but still entertaining, “The Arrangements” is a quirky, fictional short story about Donald Trump and his family. Give it a try if you’ve got a spare 30 minutes. I wouldn’t say it was anything special, but an enjoyable 3 stars from me!… Read More Audiobook Review: The Arrangements by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
“The Goddess of Macau” is a wonderful collection of stories that I devoured over the past couple of weeks. I didn’t love them all, but that’s only natural in a collection. One story in particular stood out for me and will probably stay with me for some time. I’d definitely recommend this for short stories fans and those interested in learning a little about the culture of Macau. It’s 4 stars from me!… Read More Book Review: The Goddess of Macau by Graeme Hall
“The Weddings” is a lovely story about modern marriage, secrets and stories untold. It wasn’t my favourite of the Inheritance Series but still a solid 4 stars!… Read More Book Review: The Weddings by Alexander Chee
