Safety of Objects

Rating:
Summary: Creepy
Review: This is a very well-written, very disturbing collection of short stories. Reading this book felt like finding a partially decomposed bird or squirrel on the fringes of a child's playground. The stories are dark. One of the cover reviews said they were witty; I didn't agree. Homes has tremendous talent. I was just repulsed by her characters.

If you're into exploring the seedy underbelly of suburbia, this is the perfect book for you. If you'd rather be transported to a pleasant place when reading fiction, find something else.
