 oh oh oh oh! Let me just start off by saying I'm a LMM fangirl. After Many Days a collection of short stories complied by the editor who searched for these far and wide and compiled them together based on their similar themes. LMM's prose and writing style always comes through in each of her stories; its whimsical and enduring. Some of the stories in After Many Days are redundant but since LMM did not put this book together, but had these stories written and sold separately, I'll let it slide. I enjoy the old-time grudges, prejudices, and rules that are in all of the PEI stories. LMM's books are great to pick up when you're looking for a read to make you feel alright so if you're looking for a saccharine read, look no further.
