“Even when we mean to be kind we can sometimes be cruel. We each have a streak of nastiness inside us.”

If you‘re a fan of his grown-up stories, you‘ll generally enjoy this anthology. Some I like better than the others; these stand out for me - Royal Jelly, Mrs Bixby, Poison.

We have 2 Bookclub books this month because they are short.
1. Naming The Stars by J Johnston
2. Cruelty by Roald Dahl

Cruelty is short stories, not my fave , but for Roald Dahl I will definitely make an exception.

goodbyefrancie Ooohhh, I haven't read that one. Love Roald Dahl! 7y
Cathythoughts @goodbyefrancie I know ! It sounds good. The woman who recommended this one said it‘s very dark .... that‘s fine with me 👍🏻🖤 7y
