The beginning and ending. I like the last lines. I don‘t think it‘s spoilery but I‘ll hide it, just in case.

So glad there‘s a map at the beginning. She must be a fan of the Belgariad - place names include Torak and Kel 😊
I will officially read anything this author writes. Unlike her other 2 novellas I‘ve read (Foster & Small Things Like These), this collection of 3 short stories is a bit darker. She touches on a broken engagement, a writer staying in a remote house, and a woman set on having her first affair while Christmas shopping for her family. Each story pulls you in quickly with its descriptions and atmosphere. I can‘t wait to read whatever she writes next.
This is a valid point that about zero attention is given to. Just saying.

5/5 🌟
Yet another masterpiece by Claire Keegan, showcasing her unmatched talent for crafting deeply moving narratives in a concise format. With every page, she effortlessly transforms ordinary moments into literary gems and conveys profound insights, reaffirming her status as a true master of short stories.
Keegan‘s writing is deceptively simple. It‘s so bare, straightforward. And yet every story packs a punch. These short stories are so good. The last moments just linger.
I don‘t like short stories and yet, here I am again with Claire. Who writes top notch short stories.
Oh, I love her writing style. What I found particularly interesting personally was the fact that she picked two story settings in locations in Ireland I‘m really familiar with, Arklow and Achill Island. I was able to completely visualize the characters on location, which is really cool. I love when that happens. Anybody else love it when they recognize the location in a book?
