"Anthology of stories previously appearing on CafeLit website, voted for by CafeLit contributors. All written to a professional standard, with well-developed story arcs and a clear thread, even those stories of only a few hundred words. Many (but not all) pieces have a leaning towards the paranormal, like 'No Laughing Matter', a story about a vampire with dental problems, by Paula Readman.
Two stories stood out from the rest. 'Unspoken, Unheard' by Hannah Retallick was written in a jocular, almost humorous, style but with a pervasive message about rude treatment of waiters/waitresses. Debz Hobbs-Wyatt broke our hearts in 'Looking for Graceland', concerning an elderly mother with dementia and fantasising about Elvis.
An ideal Christmas present for a relative who reads!"
