Review: Stories that integrate seamlessly about a small town with extraordinary characters
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 01 19, 2014
This book seamlessly blends 7 small stories into a happy whole. The first story set out the characters so that any mention of them in the next stories made you feel as though they were one of the family. The story outline had to be quite detailed, as everyone from the three old men on the bench to the very pregnant diner waitress come to life and there is no confusion. The final small story that rounded out the diner waitress's story was rather predictable and the story was ended quickly to the character's satisfaction; it left me wanting more details and connections to the characters that began the series.
