Julie Ann Weinstein writes in a refreshing, sharp style that is perfectly suited to flash fiction. Her stories are filled with haunting scenarios and wildly funny characters, who are as unpredictable as they are endearing.

I recommend this book to anyone who wants to get away; to anyone who loves to read but never finds the time; and to anyone who loves a good short story. Flashes From the Other World is aptly titled--the stories offer pure escapism in short form.
