Seek Immediate Shelter by Vincent Yu
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was one of my favorite reads in a long while. I loved the concept and have actually read a different book with the same premise last year but this was was so so well-executed. I didn’t even realize it was inter-connected short stories until I started it but that was the best structure for a book like this and each time I discovered a connection between the stories, I’d find myself smiling. Even though most of the stories are sad (some even devastating) I found myself completely captivated story after story. An excellent, excellent debut!
Would also make a fantastic discussion book. And the audio was also absolutely fantastic, highly recommended.
with gratitude to netgalley and Macmillan Audio for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
