Why They Run the Way They Do by Susan Perabo

4.0

Every story in this collection fits snugly into place like a puzzle piece. Not one story was weaker than the others, and each had me gasping a little for air at the end. Susan Perabo crafts small, sharp, perfect little portraits out of broken marriages, adolescence, motherhood, the minute details of a day and of a lifetime, and a surprising number of dogs - not to mention the one and only time "it was all a dream" has ever been an effective storytelling technique. Incisive, insightful, raw and compassionate.

I received this book through Goodreads Giveaways.
