All the stories were dark/depressing...not a collection to read if you're feeling a bit blue already. Good, but I can't say that I enjoyed it really.

Simple, comfortable, remarkable and odd.
Reading this collection of short stories was like sitting by the fire with a mug of tea in a old woollen jumper on a snowy winters day.

I found this book at the library and I chose it for the title.
I really thought it was going to be something out of the ordinary, maybe even something life changing. Turns out it was a book with a collection of several short stories.
I try reading short stories from time to time but one thing I’ve found myself thinking each time is that some stories need a proper novel to leave a memorable impression.
