This seems like a fascinating array of tales. And I'm intrigued to know what a Krispy Kreme donut has to do with Covid protocols.
This is a spectacular review! Congrats!

These short stories sounds interesting. The themes are a bit heavy though. The author did a great job in touching these themes. Thanks for the review!

Congrats on BOTD. I haven't read this author's books, but it seems he is quite good at addressing life issues and creating realistic characters for this collection of short stories.

James Hanna has caught me unawares! What a delightful and humorous collection of short stories. He writes simplistically while giving food for thought. Sounds like each story will be a journey of pleasure in its freshness.

Book of the day BOTD is other fiction and award winning by James and 3rd anthology of short stories it ranges from air head farm boy adapted by a quawk bird whenever the boy gets into unsuitable situation, another story is of a struggling writer who pens a maudlin book to monks but it turned septic. The boom has over 24 aberrant stories full of humour, irony, and jokes I like how James penetrates the mind of the readers I with recommend it

The stories in this anthology seem to address thought-provoking themes. Toby and Tom's characters look intriguing. Also, the outstanding editing makes the book more attractive.

This is an interesting anthology of short stories consisting of twenty-two short tales that would not only make one laugh but also urge you to think. The book is temporarily free on Amazon Kindle and has an inciteful OnlineBookClub review. Congrats on the BOTD selection.

James Hanna is a well-known author which makes me believe that this set of short stories is just as entertaining as his other works! I do not have much interest in reading short stories because I find it hard to develop relationships with the characters. For lovers of short stories however, Fact Check and More Probing Tales seems like a great read!

This is an interesting review. It highlights that the stories cover periods of the authors life in Australia and his work in Criminal Justice. Your review has left me interested to find out more about the book. Thank you.

A nice collection of several thought provoking short stories can be found in book "Fact Check and More Probing Tales" by James Hanna. Life being the recurrent theme in this collection of stories makes it interesting to read.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.
