Show Don't Tell

I'm not always the first to rush to the bookstore when a new book of short stories comes out, but there was something about this collection that I wanted to see. No doubt I am 100% the audience of Curtis Sittenfeld's Show Don't Tell, which made for the most pleasurable reading experience imaginable. You will either fly through this in two days or savor each story to stretch out the brilliance over time. This collection of stories is better than the best TV, so if it's been a while since you read a book, prepare to fall in love with reading again. Reading Show Don't Tell was like being at the circus as a kid; there were so many incredible scenes, you can hardly believe just how skillfully she nailed it. I devoured it, and so will you, guaranteed.
