Welcome to Litsy!

Short stories for people who don't like short stories. All 4⭐️ and 5⭐️ stories! Thoroughly enjoyable.

So much fun when you get an RT from an author you love! 👍🏻👍🏻🎉🎉

Also follow me on twitter if you want. I enjoy interacting with my Litsy friends all over the internet.

In this collection of stories author Christine Sneed presents uncomplicated prose that reads cool and clean in a Carver-esque style while at the same time relaying striking emotional depth. I got sucked into each piece to the point where when a story was over I had to sit back and spend time reflecting on all she had packed into it. This is not a book to zip through. You‘ll want to savor it. Favorites included “The Functionary" shown here.

Tonight's reading on the train ride home. I'm a third of the way through it. I don't always read short stories but Sneed's writing is pretty sharp.

Current to-read stack. Must...read...faster.

Love this collection. Filled with quirky characters and truly thought provoking circumstances.

I almost finished this yesterday during the #readathon, but had one story left when I decided to call it a night. Overall I enjoyed this short story collection.

Taking my reading outside. It's beautiful today! #readathon

Getting in some more short story time while waiting for my roommate to get off work so we can grab food.

Today's All the Books was a good one. Added 5 (!!!!!) more books to my #tbr 😱🤓😄👍🏼

I'm now accomplishing other tasks by bribing myself with short stories. I am at an adulting win today.
