Rating this book was a dilemma. As there are stories that I don't fully comprehend yet, perhaps I should give it a four-and-a-half? On the other hand, the language in each of these 'flash fictions' shot past my mind's eye, bursting onto my tongue as, in places, its beauty demanded that it was read aloud. I know I'll revisit its pages repeatedly for decades to come. In fact, despite having a free review copy, I've actually also bought it for my e-reader so that it becomes a companion and, to me, that seems to indicate five stars at the very least.
A special thank you to Tangent Books for sending us a copy of this book for review. We also have a review of Hershman's [[Some of Us Glow More Than Others by Tania Hershman|Some of Us Glow More Than Others]].
If you've enjoyed this, then you'll also enjoy Tania Hershman's [[The White Road by Tania Hershman|first book of short stories]]. If you're already a fan, try the heartily recommended [[All Shall be Well by Stephanie Tillotson and Penny Thomas]].
