Oh yes! I'd read this one long back, and enjoyed it as well! My favorite story in this collection was 'Radio Sweethearts.' Also, I loved reading your thoughts on the book! :)

I read this book as well, not too long ago! My favorite stories were definitely the first and second. They were all very fantastical with very real elements of mystery and friendship, which I loved. Thanks for the review, Gerry. I may have to re-read this book.

This book seems so interesting. With the things you narrated in the review, yes to all of them because of how peculiar sounding they are. As an author, the best thing to do is to write short stories so that you get them over with as soon as possible. This could be true for a reader if the reader has less time. I might read it in a quiet afternoon if I do succeed to get to read it. Thank you.
