As @sarahbarnes pointed out in a recent review of Kelly Link's collection “Get In Trouble,“ the paranormal elements & kooky happenings are only incidental to the story; narrative party favors in a way, The same can be said for book 9 of #202Halfway There are several stories in this collection that I just have not been able to stop thinking about since I read this collection by an author who is clearly advanced in short story magic,
Walter Tevis' “The Queen's Gambit.“ Beth Harmon remains one of my favorite characters that I have encountered all year. This was a one sitting read for me & I experienced so many different emotions while reading it. A true favorite. 10mo
