In this episode, I share seven short story collections that I 've enjoyed over the last five years. I think short stories have one certain benefit: they are short. And “short” doesn’t only mean the number of words or characters. It also means the fast pace, the single-minded plot, and the concise form.
Also, I think it's a good way to bring back the habit of daily reading. Don't you think?
