As a student. read aloud days of short stories from the likes of Poe and O'Henry were always my favorite day. As an adult, the short story fell to the wayside and I do not know why. I thoroughly enjoyed Come To Me by Amy Bloom which feature a variety of short stories, all with the same uncomfortable truths about relationships. Point of personal privilege - as an older reader who has noticed the waning of an attention span, Bloom reminds me that if the box isn't fitting anymore, make a bigger box. I'm going to go find a ton more short story options because I could hold onto the plot. In and out without getting married to the narrative - perfect for me at this stage. Which makes me smile, because it was perfect at the beginning of my reading life too.

3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I haven’t listened to or read a book by Amy Bloom and I will listen or read more after this one. She does the narration of the book as well. As far as the audio aspect goes of this book I enjoyed it. It flowers nicely and Amy did a good job

The plot was good. It’s just not my normal genre but it wasn’t bad. Wasn’t my favorite. I would still listen or add more by her.
