Micro-fiction in book form is very paradoxical. James Tadd Adcox is highly imaginative, and his stories can be quirky and fun and serious and hilarious and sad and all of these things in just a few hundred words.
But when having to read these individuals collected as such, at think the point of the brevity gets lost. If I ever see his name pop up in a journal, i will definitely read whatever he got in there, but the only way I would read another book by him is if it were a novel, or a collection of longer pieces of short fiction, maybe a thousand words or more per story instead of a hundred.

Yo so this was a really fun quick read but then two days later I thought about it and realized that it's essentially the "Book" from [b:The Golden Age|7012074|The Golden Age|Michal Ajvaz|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348404112s/7012074.jpg|7257415] and that totally blew my mind and was really cool. That is all!
