Review
It’s not easy writing a book, but it’s not easy writing a short story either when you have a limited word count. I have never tried to write a book and I never will. I leave that to the experts, but a few years ago I took part in a kind of contest where you could win no prizes but eternal glory during one week if you were chosen as the winner by the other contestants. 😉 Each week you received one word and the challenge was to write a little story with exactly 120 words and I can assure you that it was sometimes more difficult than making a jigsaw puzzle. It was great fun though and I stopped due to lack of time, but talking about it here makes me want to participate again. If only there were 25 hours in a day. 🙂
I felt like the authors here had a lot of fun with this project too and when they have fun you feel it through the pages of their book. The stories were sweet, fun and of course filled with love, hearts and flowers.
I enjoyed reading it a lot. 5 stars
Thank you, Barbara Venkataraman
