Three Scenarios in Which Hana Sasaki Grows a Tail: Stories | Kelly Luce

pan

I know I have an unpopular opinion on this one, but I just didn‘t really care for any of the stories in this collection. I had a hard time connecting with them and I thought they were a bit too out there for me. I like weird, but I just felt unsatisfied at the end of each one. It felt like they were just so abrupt and it was hard to really get a full opinion.

December 9: Parade for the Dead and Dying by Kelly Luce. Story published in the Austin Review.

Palmsville is having a parade for the Dead and Dying, but a flatbed driver doesn‘t do as planned, and we get the story about the driver and why he did as he did.

My purchases from Malvern Books in Austin Texas. Today they are donating all sales to Planned Parenthood because they rock! I ā¯¤it when buying books=helping my fellow woman! #resist #strongertogether

Suzze I wanted to place a mail order from them, but it looks like they sell through someone else? I wasn't sure. I hope my one friend in Austin (who is a big reader) went. 7y

beckygracelea Cartwheel is fascinating. Still find that it pops into my head unexpectedly a lot. 7y

This collection of #shortstories could double as my #diversereads and it is a debut (although not a #debutnovel). I'm about halfway through in a year because I lost it in a move and almost gave up looking. So glad I found it. Luce writes imaginatively and charmingly without once sacrificing skill and style. The ten stories delight and enchant beginning with the first entry wherein the narrator relates the story of a prophetic toaster. #booktober +

RealLifeReading Oh! I've seen this before somewhere (maybe from @Liberty or @OutlandishLit ) And really wanted to read it. Thanks for the reminder. 8y

Liberty @RealLifeReading Yessssssssssssss, it is the best. š’• 8y

Marchpane I'm sold. And hey, it also qualifies as a #longtitle š„ 8y

I'm reintroducing myself to #shortstories as I've never been much of a fan but feel that I am missing out on something great.
I often feel they are unfinished. Like the author decided halfway through a novel they didn't want to finish and said "meh, it's a short story now." This collection is my favorite so far! Rooey being number one amongst them. A good place to start if you want to dip your toes in the short story pond.
