Welcome to May, and the fifth reading prompt for our 2024 Read With MLC reading challenge: read a short story collection. May is actually Short Story Month and reading one is a great way to celebrate this brief but tantalizing literary form. Lauren Groff, guest judge at last year's O. Henry Prize for Short Fiction said of short stories, "They are quick, breathtaking windows into
other humans’ souls, which is where the infinite resides, in my personal
credo. The story form is infinitely malleable, gorgeously economical,
and endlessly surprising." Don't know where to start finding one, or some, to read? We have some ideas below!
