Kelsey Ford: Celebrate Short Story Month: 7 Recommendations Based on 7 Collections We Love (0 comment)

I love short story collections because of how much they manage to do with so little. They can dilate, expand, shatter, constellate. Within any given collection, you can move from the moon to a diner after midnight to that liminal minute right when you wake up but are still knee-deep in a dream..

Artisan Vegan Cheese From Everyday to Gourmet by Miyoko Nishimoto Schinner
	Joelle Anthony, December 10, 2012 A Frenchman is eating the Garlic Chive Cream Cheese and says, "It's good! You can't beat that!" A Frenchman! Seriously, I have only made the above, and the Chipotle Cheese Sauce, but both were great successes. I am moving on to the ones that take longer and the ones that have to age, but I'm feeling very excited by this. It's different than all the other vegan cheese recipes as they require culturing (most try to fake this with flavouring, like lemon). The book is easy to understand and very well-written.

The Sky Is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson
	Joelle Anthony, August 31, 2012 This is my favourite book of last year. I read it twice...once from the library, and again when I got this copy from Powells. Beautiful, lyrical, musical, hopeful, painful, and laugh-out-loud funny. Don't miss this one.

Year My Sister Got Lucky by Aimee Friedman
	Joelle Anthony, February 25, 2012 This is one of my favourite contemporary YAs. I've read it twice from the library and plan to buy it next time I'm at Powell's. I can't really put my finger on why I love this book so much, but I think maybe it's because it feels so honest. And it's funny, too.

Bow Grip by Ivan E Coyote
	Joelle Anthony, January 01, 2011 Easily my favourite adult novel of the year (I mostly read Young Adult because that's what I write). Funny, subtle and overall just a great read. Everyone I've told about it who read it loved it too.

Mockingbird by Kathryn Erskine
	Joelle Anthony, October 21, 2010 One of my favourite books of the year. And now an NBA finalist. Don't miss this one. Especially if you're like me and a bit squeamish about the tougher subjects...it's handled beautifully and it's a wonderful book.
