Fragile Things: Short Fictions and Wonders by Neil Gaiman

Did not finish book. Stopped at 69%.

I got the book because of a recommendation believing it was a compilation of essays, rather than short stories. I know the cover reads "says short fictions", but I just trusted the rec and didn't read anything at all before hand.
As it turns out, I'm terrible at reading short stories. I hate the constant change of characters, the flow from one barely savored story to another. I read as many as I could. Some short stories were really good and I'm glad I read them, but It just left me wanting to read a longer book in which characters stay for a bit longer.
