Summary: Perfect for the subway
Review: If you want a good book for reading on the subway, this is it. the stories are the perfect length for your daily commute (depending on how far away you live from work).Also, they're probably too scary to read alone.

Summary: weird & fascinating!
Review: This book could have easily been better if the writer had elaborated a bit more in each story, or should I say had completed each story. The stories were written very well and had good plot lines, but they were so short and incomplete. I know that short stories are supposed to be short, but they also should finish a story. I just got done reading a short story book by Stephen King and it was more enjoyable because he finished the stories. After each story (especially the first one) I really was left wanting to know what happened. Although this was well written I wouldn't recommend this to people because it was just incomplete.

Review: What I like about this author's writing is its directness - right into other people's minds: the tough deaf kid on the bus; the hotdog thief; a mother whose son has been killed in war; a father looking for his lost child. 20 strange, enticing stories from the insides of other's lives in all their mournfulness, their rage & loneliness. Clay McLeod Chapman knows how to write from a children's point of view, especially about how incomprehensible parents can be. If you like short stories - don't miss this collection!
