REVIEW
An eclectic and delightful selection of short stories, which are perfect for listening to when you fancy a few minutes relaxation, or you just want to dip in and out. They range from the slightly eerie to the 'feelgood' and 'cosy' tale, so there is something for everyone, including cat and dog lovers. Sometimes I wanted to know a bit more, but then that is the nature of the short story and an indication of the way the stories held my interest.
The narration was crisp and clear, although sometimes I found the accent the narrator used a bit jarring, but that could just be me.
That said, I found this anthology a very enjoyable listen.
Author Bio –
Suzanne lives in Middlesex,
England with her husband, two teenagers, a crazy cocker spaniel and an
adopted cat that thinks she's the boss.
Suzanne’s writing journey began at the age of twelve when she completed her first novel. Giving up work to raise a family gave her the impetus to take her attempts at novel writing beyond the first draft, and she is lucky enough to have a husband who supports her dream - even if he does occasionally hint that she might think about getting a proper job one day.
Now an author of four novels including the Silent Sea Chronicles trilogy and her debut, Visions of Zarua, plus three short story collections, Suzanne hopes the dreaded ‘W’ word will never rear its ugly head again!
Suzanne collects books, is interested in history and enjoys wandering around castles and old ruins whilst being immersed in the past. She likes to combine her love of nature and photography on family walks, but most of all she loves to escape with a great film, binge watch TV shows, or soak in a hot bubble bath with an ice cream and a book.
Narrator Bio –
