"You know when you read a really good book and afterwards you are sort of in a stupor? Like you don’t want to talk to anyone, or do anything, or even really think about the book too directly. Because even though you are done, part of you mind is still so emotionally wrapped up in the story that you are not ready to let it go? ...We... Read more of this blog post »

If possible I would have given this anthology 4.5 stars because it was a near perfect read for me. Out of six stories I loved four, one was interesting and one I didn't enjoy at all. Overall, it was much more than I've come to expect from antholog...

 Yep, I still have lingering feelings for this anthology... My blog partner, Cindi, sent me to this anthology. She felt I would like it and that a couple of the stories would be up my alley. I would have to say she is right. All of the stories were... " Read more of this review » |

Turned the last page and I think It ruined me for a while. I finish a good book and I can't start anything new until my brain refreshes itself. This is what happened with CTDSWO. I didn't have a favorite story in this anthology because each story...

“Oh wouldn't that twist your twat if that turned out to be true!”
― Eric Arvin, Woke Up in a Strange Place
― Eric Arvin, Woke Up in a Strange Place
“Lou reluctantly drew back, still holding Joe, and placed his soft lips on Joe's own. Existence reacted to their reunion. Immediately, it was as if two halves became whole once again. The sky flashed colors overhead as they stood together: day to night, night to day. They stood motionless and kissing for so long a period that they might have been mistaken for part of the landscape, as vines climbed up their legs and grass grew around them; as dirt gathered and buried even more the scattered fragments of the abbey. Only the keepers of time knew that lifetimes did indeed pass, possibly entire eras. And yet it was but a scant moment to Joe and Lou. All of it but a simple, longed-for embrace neither time nor death could contain.”

Cole wrote: "Thanks for friending me Eric!"Hey, Cole! I'm trying to become more Good Reads literate...lol.
Ah, James Purdy is one of my favorites, too. Wish I could find more time, these days, to read more -- of James or of anyone else. Seems even you have managed to read one more book lately than I have. Oh, well, feast or famine, and one day, when no one wants to read what I write, I figure I'll have plenty of time to do some of the reading I'm missing out on now. My pleasure!
Love, love, love your books!"
Thank you so much!
