COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Wonderful Sampler of Short Fiction submitted by darla on July 1, 2013, 9:41am What a great collection of short stories this is! If you are looking for new authors to read, this book offers up a buffet of provocative, well-written, realistic fiction. It caught my attention because I am a fan of David Sedaris, as well as the 826 project. Definitely worth a read, these stories will leave you feeling unsettled in a good way.
