Lakan Inocencio

Intersting, charming, slightly strange, but all good

Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2013

Granted, the title might throw you off a bit (I know it threw me) but the book is certainly worth reading. The short stories range from slightly strange to very thought-provoking. One thing all the stories have in common is the imagination and creativity that went into them. Definitely something anyone who likes quirky and fun stories should pick up. Cheers!
