Suitcase Heart features ten short stories written by Cree Toner over the last two years. At times uplifting and hopeful, at others heartbreaking and somber, Suitcase Heart encapsulates people who, though their circumstances may differ, share the common joy and pain of being alive.
I've never read book containing a series of short stories but the time reading this book flew by. Each story had characters that were relatable despite the only 10 pages we had to get to know them. Cree (the author) is a friend from home and I loved the Stratford touches that were mixed into the stories. This book has definitely opened my eyes to the world of short-story and how compelling story telling does not need 300 pages to be related and enjoyable for readers.
