![]() The book and its script have attracted large number of customers and citizens on account of their interest and affiliation they find within the book. The book gives an account of a thirteen year old. The questions such as why do the people with such trait of personality depict a character and expressive way that is often termed as weird and high in pitch, another question asked is why does one feel the need to put things in place and in order, things as small as the toys and other playing items. The story follows the life events and the manner of thinking of a thirteen year old child who is motivated by the ideas of autism. ![]() It is helpful with regard to allowing the understanding and good relationship building between the elders and the young ones who are driven by the ideas of autism.

Totally unwarranted insta-love with honestly zero chemistry or good explanation, that leads to repeated gross manipulative and non-con intimacy that the reader is supposed to find romantic? Yuck. Horrible horrible whiny and pathetic main character with no self respect (and none of those things change over the course of the book). into the void, one could say :) Also the way she voices male characters is. Pair that with a main character who knows absolutely nothing the entirety of the book and just pointlessly whines and shouts. ![]() Don't be lured in by the cool cover art!

A chaotic web of deceit, corruption, and seduction slowly steals him from the beauty of his surroundings and pushes him into a perverse game in which there is no winner. "But amidst the detached serenity, there’s evil in those hills. ![]() The pace is slower, the skies are blue, and the mornings are quiet.

But she said nothing, and went into the sleeping room, took off all the bedclothes, and laid a pea on the bottom of the bed. "Well, we shall soon find that out!" Thought the old queen. There stood a princess outside the gate but oh! What a sad plight she was in from the rain and the storm! The water was running down from her hair and her dress into the points of her shoes and out at the heels again. It was fearful! There was a knocking heard at the palace gate, and the old king went to open it. One night there was a dreadful storm it thundered and lightened, and the rain streamed down in torrents. So he came home again in very low spirits, for he had wanted very much to have a true princess. In every case there was some little defect, which showed the genuine article was not yet found. ![]() There were plenty of princesses, but he could not find out if they were true princesses.

I’ve read it three times now and am sure I’ll revisit it again. The first story in the volume, “Spirit of Christmas,” captured me instantaneously, and when I got to the end of it I went right back to the start for a second read. Though I don’t read many short stories, I decided to give this collection a try because I appreciate Winterson so much as a writer. I fell in love with both The Passion and Sexing the Cherry years ago, but I haven’t read most of her more recent work. Before stumbling on this book in my public library, I had forgotten Winterson and how much I enjoy her. Winterson’s writing is beautiful, her imagination rich and deep, her memories sometimes funny, sometimes bittersweet, and for me always welcome. ![]() With a foreword (“Christmas-Tide”) and an afterword (“Christmas Greetings from the Author”), you get two bonus essays, for a total of 14.
