I think most of them have teen or new-adult characters. The weirdest one was "The Prince and the Troll" which I didn't totally get, but it felt like it was about technology and/or climate change? Maybe? ( ) the best thing about short stories is how much can be covered in such a short amount of time and i think if i could only read one category for the rest of my life it would be short stories. Rainbowl Rowell's stories and characters are sweet, sassy, nerdy, heartwarming. we love coming of age stories and stories about boys loving girls and girls loving boys and friendships. this is the first book i've read by Rowell and i understand that a lot of the characters in these stories are from their other books and i love that! what a fun thing to do for your readers I think I prefer Rowell's longer works over these short stories. The stories are good, but the novels just hit different. I liked the stories with characters I knew the best, though "In Waiting" was definitely the most interesting one. I was also a little surprised at how hetero most of the stories were. It shouldn't have been a surprise given most of Rowell's works, but it was still a little surprising that only the Simon Snow story had queer characters. Overall, the stories are cute and it's a pretty easy read. Good for YA Romance readers. I haven’t read any Rainbow Rowell since she’s been working on her faux-Harry/Draco fan fiction pastiches. Not interested in that. What I am interested in is short stories. Mostly trying to figure out how they’re made. And I don’t think I’ve ever read any short stories that weren’t science fiction/horror or the post-modern literary realism kind they force you to read in college courses like “The Jilting of Granny Weatherall” and “A Rose for Emily“. These are romantic short stories. They could have titled this collection “Oops! All Meet-Cutes”. But they’re still fun. And, surprisingly, I was able to finish the book, unlike many other collections I’ve tried over the years. Maybe I can enjoy short stories if they’re not experimental. These are fun, light-hearted, and have a consistent tone throughout (unlike anthologies, which are so hit-and-miss you’d think a blind man was handling the gun). Nothing in here is as heartwarming as Fangirl or reaches the emotional level of Eleanor & Park. But it’s still a pleasant book to bring on vacation somewhere. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
