The Perfect Treat by Julia Williams, Liz Trenow, Claudia Carroll, Miranda Dickinson, Mhairi McFarlane
2.0
This book was free when I downloaded it, but if I had I paid for it, I would have felt cheated. At least 50% of the book is previews of novels by the 5 short story authors. I skipped over these, although I did look up book reviews of some of them elsewhere.
I was split over the short stories themselves. I like having something I can read in a half hour break and all these stories fitted that criteria. The first few stories I really enjoyed, although they were predictable and written to a formula, but there were others which I struggled to see as short stories at all.
Overall good as a taster of author's writing styles, but lacks any real substance and instantly forgettable.
