Review: Not Just Romance Stories
Rating: 4 out of 5

This is a collection of five short stories each with their own unique presentation of human connection and how love and affection can grow even in the darkest or most unexpected places. I would have given this collection a five, however, I was particularly annoyed with one of the stories. The other four are great examples of storytelling and do not come off as typical or cliche "romance" stories. In each story the reader is presented with new and very distinct characters that evoke a genuine emotional connection with. This collection of stories makes the reader question their own perception of love and how it appears in the world around us. The one story I disliked was due to my inability to relate to the strange relationship that develops out of an extremely bizarre and unlikely scenario. Overall I was quite pleased with this collection and it made for a very quick and enjoyable read.
