beautiful written story! and so evocative within the natural constraints of flash fiction. 

the writer certainly has a lovely way with words, and establishes character and setting so deftly. 

a treat to read.

Review: Fried Rice by Shih-Li Kow

 Review of Fried Rice by Shih-Li Kow (996 words) Flash Fiction Online, February 2022 : Purchase or Read Online A beautiful concept, beautifully executed. I love how the dad's frustration was portrayed. The narrator, Marta, was equally in grief, but wanted dad to take the first step towards moving on. Cook's personality was also very well developed and I loved the conversation between Marta and Cook. The ending was poignant and touching. Lovely story. One of my favorites this year so far.   Support us on Ko-fi -  https://ko-fi.com/ohjustbooks

Review: If We Live to Be Giants by Allison Mulder

Review of If We Live to Be Giants by Allison Mulder (997 words) Fireside Magazine, Issue 47, Sept 2017 : Read Online The gradual raising of stakes was beautifully showcased. The sense of relief the girls must have felt at the end was palpable, without diminishing the severity of what they went through over the course of the story. A lot packed into this flash fiction piece, not least the depth of narrative and choice of prose that elevate this story. Support us on Ko-fi -  https://ko-fi.com/ohjustbooks

Review: Wikihistory by Desmond Warzel

Re view of Wikihistory by Desmond Warzel   Reactor Mag (previously Tor.com), Aug 2011, Read Online Time travel is (dare I say?) commonplace, and there’s an online forum for participants. The premise itself is hilarious, and the characters are fun. People seem to love killing Hitler on their first trips. There’s always one person who really loves reminding everyone of the rules - this is super helpful for exposition in this case. As with all time travel stories, you could dig in and find a way to make it not really make sense. Or you could hang on to that suspension of disbelief and enjoy this story!
