Review of Fresh Ink
Review (4.5 Stars): Fresh Ink was a delightfully entertaining collection of short stories that has something for everyone. Each of these stories had a unique voice and I enjoyed each and every one of them. I’m familiar with a few of these authors and I’m glad to say that I get to add a few more to my never ending TBR after reading this anthology. Fresh Ink is a book that everyone needs to read because each story has a diverse coming of age background that all of us can relate to.
