Besides, she kissed him and he really liked it too. The relationship did end up being romantic, but would she eventually become tired of Marcel? He was, after all, twenty years older than her...

This book is a collection of four unrelated stories that compliment each other nicely. The easy going characters and settings in the stories is juxtaposed with their dark actions and thoughts. The comfortable story-telling lulled me, only to have the rug pulled out in the next paragraph.
I found this book to be disturbing and yet I am still thinking over the stories examining the different angles.
My overall review of this book would be "Twisted". None of the stories led me down an expected path. Despite, claiming "I don't like this book" when I first read it, many months later it still sits on my book shelf. I will read this book again but this time I'll be ready for it.
