Read It Twice
Published by A. Stewart , 2 years ago
The characters are crafted in a way that they have unique but related experiences. They linger in my head and shape my own perspective. Philyaw also uses sardonic wit that frequently made me laugh. I read this collection of short stories twice, and I will eventually read it again.
