- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is a compilations of sad stories that needed to be told.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I must say that I did not like the short stories thrown together. Although I liked the stories, you get engaged in a story and then there is another story that you think will somehow link to the previous story and then it does not happen.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great collection of short stories. Rather than given a resolution to the issue, you have to pause at the conclusion to figure out the plot. Definitely an interesting choice for a book club selection.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Touching stories of people who have experiences that I have been blessed to avoid. The last one was especially touching. Would be a great choice for a book club.
