Pride and Prejudice

by Jane Austen

An interesting love story.Though in the beginning the plot seems a little bit boring,it becomes interesting by the change in views of Darcy and Elizebeth.The most interesting about the book is that it gives a well collection of various natures found in humans.

Murder Rides High

by Leonard Finley Hilts

[From Mammoth Detective, September 1946]

Tight little short story of murder on a US Navy flight base. A quick read with an aerial dog-fight thrown in for good measure

Two Timer

by Fredric Brown

Two very short stories — 400 words or so each — taken from Galaxy Science Fiction, February 1954. Despite their brevity, they both manage to set up their twists perfectly.

Nine Short Stories

by Rex Stout

I agree with the previous reviewer who likened these stories to those of O Henry. All nine are wry, humorous and, more often than not, have an enjoyable reversal at or near the end. Perfect short stories, in other words.

[Side note: there are some minor transcription errors throughout, no doubt from the OCR process, but these do not affect comprehension or enjoyment.]
