I have not read Flashy Fiction 1 but I plan to.  This book is definitely a book that I loved.  It is very Twilight Zone-ish but with short stories.  The writers are able to elicit a great deal of emotion with each story in such a short span of time.  I will say my favorite story in the entire book was Fireflies - the very first story.  I imagine that is a response to not at all expecting a story such as that one.  Once I read that story I had more of a clue what to expect.  Because the stories are short - they can be quite intense making it difficult to read more than a few in one sitting - so take your time, enjoy them and feel them.  I know that sounds strange - but you will.  You will read them remembering good and bad memories from your childhood.  You will personalize the stories and be shocked by how your memories are illusions within the framework of Flashy Fiction.  Definitely a 5 star our of 5 book.I received this complimentary copy of Flashy Fiction 2 from Untold Press.  All opinions are mine.
