About book Sinister Shorts (2006)

I really loved almost all of these stories, and even the ones that weren't my favorites were still good enough to keep me reading through to the end. In most short story collections I find myself skipping a story or two that just don't "grab me" after the first few pages. I found myself not wanting to miss anything in this collection! The stories had some great twists, but were not hard to follow, with the exception of one "Gertrude Stein Solves A Mystery". This story was full of a lot of odd references and half the time I didn't know what the author was talking about. But even with all of that considered, I still enjoyed the premise of the story and the interesting twist of having a lesbian couple as the central characters. I loved Juggernaut, Sandstorm, Chocolate Milkshake, The Young Lady and The Couple Behind The Curtain. But after reading many of the stories in the collection, the endings became a teeny bit too predictable. Oh it was an intense and great ending for a story the first time or two I read it, but then it just didn't vary quite enough. This author(s) write such incredible, believable characters that I think they can be a little more clever and vary up their endings more. This was my first experience with a Perri O'Shaughnessy book,but I will be back for more.
