Stranger Things Happen - Kelly Link

[handslive]

Today, I finished this short story collection written by Kelly Link.  Really liked some of those.  Some were cool, but didn't quite connect for me somehow.  But when they connect, pow! zap!

"Some were cool, but didn't quite connect for me somehow."

Ditto. I have a hard time explaining why. I LOVE her first collection, though. All of those hit the spot exactly on the mark.

I just read this in the LCRW newsletter: "Film rights to "The Faery Handbag" have indeed sold."

!!! I wonder if they're kidding.

I haven't read the first one yet. Did you lend it to us? (I know we've got several Kelly Link books in the house.)

Yes I did. It's called "Stranger Things Happen". She's only written the two.

I loaned my original copy of it to Dave, but he's not read it or returned it. So I bought another one!

HEY! No, wrong. Her latest one is called Magic for Beginners (which is not as good), her first is Stranger Things Happen (which I love and which you've now read).

Graaaaaaaaaaaah. I got all of this wrong. Please, don't listen to me.

Do you have bruises?

More like singe marks from electrical burns. But I think I like them!
