really liked it
bookshelves: short-stories

Well the title of this collection of short stories is quite an understatement!! 88 y/o Maud lives by herself without friends or family, and she has an unconventional way to solve her perceived and sometimes real problems. I read through this collection in just a few hours and am feeling somewhat guilty to say that I like Maud even though I don't like what she did!

Thanks, Rowan. I did enjoy the feisty & devious Maud.
