Forgotten Ones: Drabbles of Myth and Legend by Henry Herz, Michael D. Nadeau, Michelle River
3.0
*I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I thought the concept of this collection was really interesting, as I'd never heard of a collection of drabbles (100 word stories) before. It may not be the best format for me as there were so many of these that I was sucked into and left wanting more. For me I'm not sure if I can be satisfied with only 100 words. Still it was a great way to get acquainted with a number of different authors and their writing styles.
There were so many of these that were written beautiful and had a great punchline, but there were also some that just didn't do it for me, which is something you can see with any collection. Still, I did enjoy the stories but I'm not sure if drabbles are something I'm going to read a lot in the future as I feel like I will always want more in some way.
