It was a good read though. In its own way it was a creepy read.

Table for Two: Fictions
by Amor Towles
Excellent stories (4/12/2024)
Table for Two is a book of short stories. The last story is a novella. I really enjoyed them. The characters in the stories are relatable and they are entertaining. The stories are entertaining but they make you think too. I did not want the stories to end. As usual, Amormore
