COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Uneven but worth reading submitted by klickitat on August 31, 2012, 10:32pm I dare you to read these stories and not shout "TWIST!" at the ends.

Overall, a bit of an uneven collection but each story is so short that the stinkers don't get in your way too much. Definite brain candy but smart enough that it escapes the "guilty pleasure" category.
