Really wanted to like this as bizarre short stories are my kind of thing. Started excellently with the Summer People - subtle, mysterious and a touch sinister. But after that i don't really know what happened. The tales got a bit more convoluted, unnecessary. I found I was wrong footed with lots of similar sounding names, or complex and confusing sentences. This is a terrible review because I can't articulate what it was that I didn't like, but basically I found it hard work when I had hoped it would be deliciously light. Not so put out I wouldn't consider reading another of her collections, but it would be last chance saloon!
