Not only are her stories beautifully, exquisitely written, but each one is also as different from each other as they are from anything else on the bookshelves. She writes about the future, both near and far, and a present day that s stranger than anything I ve ever known. But at the heart of all her stories are relatable characters who yearn for love and security. If you are in the mood for mystical, moody stories that you can finish in 20 minutes, but think about for hours, Get in Trouble is perfect!
