Smoke and Mirrors: Short Fictions and Illusions
by Neil Gaiman
Like all short story collections, some of these stories were good and some of them were not so good. There were some stories in here that will definitely stick with me and were actually quite exceptional though:
-The Wedding Present: will be thinking about this for a while. Is the decision made at the end worth it and I would choose the same? Is it better to live a happy life or to never be lonely?
-The Goldfish Pool and Other Stories: just damn good storytelling and creativity.
-Mouse: this one made me think. It was quite a good and unique critique of anti-abortion policies and beliefs
-Murder Mysteries: Another one that made me think. Loved how it presented a reasoning for Lucifer's eventual rebellion as a side plot even though that wasn't the point of the story. Still debating with myself if all the characters are truly who they said they were, or who they thought they were.
