Show Don't Tell

Reviewing short stories is hard! Instead of explaining each or even just a handful, I’d rather say that reading anything by Curtis Sittenfeld just magically takes me away. Wherever the story is set I am there. I can see and hear the characters. Memories come flooding back and these stories give me a desperate desire to write one myself. There are so many lines I wish I could remember that made me smile and laugh and think about life. Short stories are hard because the ones you really enjoy are over way too soon, theres a bit of an empty feeling while reading a short story collection instead of a novel. But I am 100% sure these are worth it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐
