A book to savor before bedtime every night. You'll find yourself reading several stories at a time, because they're that good. The stories are very thoughtfully well written. There are no special introductions to the book or to the stories, simply the stories themselves, presented one after the other. Great stories that make you feel comfortable in life knowing that everyone's life seems to have a twist a good effort in bringing people down to earth to real world life situations.

They are sufficiently short to be able to read in a single sitting, but each is complete in itself. The stories are humorous and life affirming, each with that tone of reality that makes the reading both engaging and enjoyable. Overall, an enjoyable read with varying tales of love and relationships. I’d definitely recommend checking this out
