Surprisingly good

Don't usually care much for short stories, but this leaves me wanting more. Many more. They are quite delightful and each unique in its own way. Well worth the read.

Mini -Faith Fairchild Stories

Most of these stories are about caterer, mother, wife Faith Fairchild. Some of the stories are quite entertaining, with a few being less so. The shorter ones were my favorites. Most of the stories only have Faith and sometimes one family member, but no Pix.

Narrator is good.

I would have rated this higher, but I do not like the use of some extremely foul language. Most of KHP's books are considered "cozy". They didn't add to the stories.

Don’t bother

All of the stories are silly, and several are unpleasant. The narrator does not supply the charm that is missing from the text.
