3 posts | 1 read
Elizabeth Ferrars wrote more than thirty short stories, many of which appeared in anthologies and newspapers by the time Designs on Life was first published in 1980. Already well known for her crime novels, this collection illustrates the author's skill at employing ingenious situations and observations, with nine fresh and original stories that are classic examples of the genre.

A very good collection of short stories. They were just as long as they needed to be and were told well, even when I had an idea of how things would end. Will be looking for more of Ferrars' work.

Clinging to my tea like it's a life raft after a 2-hour commute home...massive gridlock because of a traffic light knocked over right in front of a major bus station, and windchills approaching minus 25 😰🌨🌬

Melissa_J What the hell is with the weather? It‘s not January for crying out loud. Ugh! 🥶 6y
Faibka Oh my gosh, stay warm! Love your mug :) 6y
Tamra Yikes! Reminds me to always keep the gas tank half full in the winter! 6y

rabbitprincess @Melissa_J I know eh?! Tomorrow I will already need to break out the snowpants. @Faibka Thanks! Nice and cosy now 😊 @Tamra Good call! I hope the bus drivers were able to do the same. @VioletBramble Yes, and I managed to get on a not-crowded one eventually. Also finished a book 😂 @Lcsmcat Thanks! My aunt and uncle bought it for me randomly 😄 6y

rabbitprincess @CouronneDhiver Thanks! I didn't know they were plaid until I received my actual glasses; just thought they were purple 😄 @batsy Thanks! Yes, got warm and toasty eventually 😊 @RidgewayGirl Thanks! Fortunately it wasn't snowing as well. That would have been worse. 6y
