I'll confess to partiality here - I've recently become very keen on drabbles - one hundred word stories.  When they are well done, the story is a little gem, often with an unexpected twist at the end.  These are very well done.  I intended to read one or two per session and to allow myself to digest them before reading more, but this is the ebook equivalent of a tub of Pringles.  Once you pop, you can't stop!  I confess to having read them all back to back but I know I'll have this on my kindle home page for a long time, just to dip into.This book is the first I'm aware of with a collection of drabbles from a single author and I was impressed at the range of styles.  We have gently amusing, outright funny, some rather risqué stories, dark horror and a number of moving and sad tales here.  There's a lot of food for thought in some of them.  I enjoyed the `linked' ones scattered throughout the book, on the same theme or with the same character.I hope this book takes off because I'd love to see more drabble collections.  They are the ideal `only got a minute' reading.
