I had no idea what to expect when I started this collection of stories as it's not normally something I'd read. I actually liked most of the stories but that's probably because almost all the stories were quite dark and not what comes to mind when you think of romance. My favourite story was Moon

Viewing at Shijo Bridge by Richard Parks. I recommend this book to anyone that enjoys reading short stories.
