I enjoyed reading Mothercare a few years ago so I was excited to read THRILLED TO DEATH by Lynne Tillman. I really enjoyed this collection! These 41 stories are selected from the 1980s to present and ordered thematically. I enjoyed all the settings including London, New York, Kensington Market and the mention of Vancouver. All the movie and celebrity references are fun and there’s even a story from the point of view of Marilyn Monroe. I really enjoyed the touches of humour like when the author references herself and there’s one story about a writer whose pen name is Lynne Tillman. And another funny moment was when a woman at a bar ordered a beer to appear normal. I liked the range of these stories and now I’m thrilled to know I enjoy both nonfiction and fiction by this author.

The audiobook narrator was very good as well. I would enjoy to listen to her again.

Thrilled to Death was a great story collection. I loved the character development and the writing was propulsive.,

The stories had a little bit of everything - humor, insight, compelling storytelling. I felt completly wrapped up in the text while reading.
