One Amazing Thing by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni
220 pages
This book has been on my to-read list for many years! I was extremely happy once I read it that the wait was worth it.
One Amazing Thing is set in America, but it's set in a passport office, so you have many cultures and different kinds of characters in one setting. An earthquake traps nine people in this office and while passing the time for a hopeful rescue, each person takes a turn to tell a story about one amazing thing that has happened in their life.
I am a sucker for a good short story, and this book reads like nine great short stories. The abrupt ending, however, annoyed the crap out of me! Nothing bothers me more than reading a book then feeling cheated out of an ending!
Next up: Pride Over Pity by Kailyn Lowry (Teen Mom fan for LIFE)
