Fables, Fictions & Fantasies: A Compendium by Chloe Cocking A collection of thirteen short stories that feature several revenge schemes; three adventures in customer service; a few accidental deaths; a vegan stripper defending herself from zombie attack; and a little girl finding the cupcake of her dreams. Quill & Quire said: “What? We’ve never heard of her, sorry.” The Georgia Strait said: “Stop sending us email, weirdo.” Everybody else seemed to laugh while reading it, though. Except for the first story. And the one about pirates. And . . . ok, fine: everybody laughed at the funny ones, just not the ones that are kinda sad.
