      Four Stories

      I loved this book. Once I started, I didn't put it down until it was finished (well, take that as literally as you want to, but it was definitely finished in one lovely Friday evening). A quick and extremely enjoyable read, reminiscent of Brian Joseph Davis' Portable Altamont, and Francesca Lia Block's Weetzie Bat books. More stories please, Greg Kearney!
