Review:

Wow. That was awful. Not just a little bad, but so tiresome I could barely get through it. In fact I made it 73 pages, skimmed the next few, then flipped to the last page (89) and found that nothing had happened.

There were more stories and about 100 more pages to go in the volume, but I’m calling it good.

Life is too short to read bad books.

Canadian author who won all sorts of honors. This is like how people you have never heard of always win Juno Awards.

This book made me want to: think twice before randomly grabbing a book off the shelf

Overall rating:

Other: Canadian government funded crapitude
