30 Days of Books - Day 17
Day 17 – Favorite story or collection of stories (short stories, novellas, novelettes, etc.)
This is a toughie, too. All of the 'what is your favorite...' questions are tough. It's so hard for me to pick favorites. I love anthologies of short stories, especially dark fairy tales like the Snow White, Blood Red series edited by Ellen Datlow & Terri Windling, as well as the Year's Best Sci-Fi & Fantasy collections. I enjoy most of Stephen King's short story collections... and of course, H. P. Lovecraft.
Oh, wait... I do have two that top the list. Ursula K. LeGuin's Buffalo Gals & Other Animal Presences and 100 Great Science Fiction Short Short Stories edited by Isaac Asimov. Coyote stalks all throughout Buffalo Gals, and the Short Short Stories are mostly hilarious - and usually less than 2 pages. My favorite is probably the one about the sign at the end of the universe. It says "˙dn puǝ sıɥʇ".
