-
I have a story in here so of course it's a five-star book.
-
This is a collection of over 100 very short pieces of fiction written by various people. As in any collection, some pieces are stronger than others.
These ones are my 5-star favourites:
The Baby Came Early Screaming
White Matter
Last Dog
Ringer
I Live Near a Baked Bean Factory
Boy Who Could Fly
Thinking About Jessica
Mom Woke Us Up One Night
Bouncy Castles
Twinkle, Twinkle
The Paralysis of Verbs
There's another one titled October 29th, 1:17 am, which was utterly horrifying. I can't call it a favourite, exactly, because, well, it utterly horrified me. -
Something for everyone in this collection of very short fiction, all winners of Bath Flash Fiction awards.
