Yet Jacob proves she's capable of doing more than grossing readers out, and does so by creating sympathetic characters... -- Garrett Peck, HELLNOTES

5.0 out of 5 stars
A wondrous book,
This review is from: Up, Out Of Cities That Blow Hot and Cold (Hardcover)
Charlee Jacob's short stories never disappoint. They are thoughtful and gruesome,literate and gory at the same time.There are no wasted words or meaningless cliches. I think my favorite story here is "Apodomania" although all the stories in this book are great.
