This book helped me figure out why I don't like short stories. It's because each story is only a snapshot of a bigger story not completed. I prefer a fully fleshed out story with deep characters.

I will say this book has some stories unlike most of the author's books that I have read and enjoyed, so I found theses intriguing. And there were some that were they fleshed out would be of the same dreamy quality of her novels. But I really dislike stories that stop mid-story so I didn't complete this book.

More joyous reading in the land of Howl & Sophie. Interesting concepts, strange and familiar weird characters. Wish there were more in the series!

I can't put my finger on it but there's something about the author's choice of words that I absolutely enjoy! Every one of the books that I've read give me a sense of dreaming that I'm reading. And her storylines are always of personal experiences of the characters.

It's sad that her books are so rarely accessible in libraries and when they are available they're usually in physical formats only.

A unique topic, which is incredibly rare these days! So refreshing!

Unfortunately, it's a novella and could have used a bit more fleshing out on the transitions from one scene to another and a bit of a preamble rather than diving right in mid-conversation-like. But what's there is a great story that's just too short for my taste.

Better than the first book on action and suspense. Really enjoyed it!

Fascinating story; lots of suspense and a plausible wrap-up so we're not left hanging at the end.
