SURPRISINGLY WONDERFUL,
By A Customer
This review is from: Beyond the Picket Fence: And Other Short Stories (Paperback)
I'm a big, I mean huge, Lori Wick fan and have read every single book almost. I had shied away from this one because I wasn't really sure how I felt about the fact that they were only short stories. I hadn't found it anywhere except for the web and wasn't sure enough about it to buy it. I shouldn't have been worried though. I found it in a bookstore and fell in love with it immediately. I read the entire thing within 24 hours and felt deprived when there wasn't anymore. The last one, "The Rancher's Lady", and "An Intense Man" were my favorites. Some are quite lengthy, lasting for 40 pages. Others are shorter, but just as satisfying. If you are like me, any time you start a Lori Wick book, you want to do nothing else but sit down and read. This is easier because it is not one long story and is easier to break away from. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Happy Reading!

Disappointed,
This review is from: Beyond the Picket Fence: And Other Short Stories (Paperback)
Before I bought the book, I read the negative reviews and disregarded them, thinking that anything Lori Wick writes is excellent. Now after reading the short stories, I think that it is safe to say that she needs to stick with novels. Wick tried to put more information into the short stories then necessary, which resulted in a poor development of plot and characters. Even for a dedicated Wick fan, this was a huge disappointment.

Short stories you will love,
By "gingirl15" (North Carolina) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Beyond the Picket Fence: And Other Short Stories (Paperback)
As always, I was impressed my Lori Wick's fabulous gift to write down-to-earth stories with wonderful plots and loveable characters. Usually I am not a huge fan of short stories because I enjoy getting to know characters on a deeper level; however, Lori brought each person to life so when the charming story ended, I was sad to conclude a well developed story. A wonderful asset to the "Lori Wick Book Collection," and a great book to keep and read over and over again.
