There was a time when I never gave any thought to reading short stories. It was a novel or nothing.Nowadays, with kids, work and all the stress these two things entail, I've come to treasure short stories. More often than not I won't pick up a book for a week and find that not only have I forgotten the plot, but sometimes the characters!!Hence the luxury of a collection of shorts is that you don't have to do much reading back to be back into it.As for the book itself, I'll say three things. Lucy can write, each story brings something new and her handling of characters and the situations they find themselves in is right up there with the best of them.Recommended.
