Review: Land of Big Numbers

Land of Big Numbers Land of Big Numbers by Te-Ping Chen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received an ARC digital edition of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a collection of short stories featuring Chinese culture. The stories end abruptly with no closure. One of the stories (the last one) was about being stranded at a train station. I understand the moral of the story, but I would have loved to know what happened to the characters or had this particular story as a novella or full length novel.

The first and last stories were my favorite, but the middle stories were paced slowly. I kept putting the book down during these stories.

I did enjoy the writing style and would have given this 5-stars if the middle stories were more of a page turner like the last story.
