Leaves Piled High by Douglas Robbins

5.0

For what it's worth, this book is good

This book is a collection of short stories, each story is powerfully enlightening. It serves as an collection of episodes from life's grandest moments, life's disasters, brief encounters and journeys. I will say that journeys is the constant theme flowing through each story: everyone is seeking something.

The stories are memories: destroying a barbecued meal, but turning it into a fantastic memory, running from home only to find there's no place better, being stranded at an airport, taking a chance with the most unlikely of people, and visiting parents who don't quite know what happiness is anymore.

This book offers you the opportunity to immerse myself into another's journey. I enjoyed the read.
