Read nary a one; I trust your opinion completely. If ever you find a copy of Wayne Johnston's The Colony of Unrequited Dreams lying by the side of the road, give it a whirl🌀 A small Newfoundlander, his big (often futile) efforts, and the brilliant, tragic, enigmatic Fielding.

When The Coffee Gets Cold was a good premise that was completely wasted. And all of the stories seemed to involve punishing a woman, or putting her in her place. Particularly I hate fictional stories about women who know pregnancy could kill them but go ahead anyway, and then it's held up as the Ultimate Feminine Sacrifice. And especially when the author is a man. Gross.
