Different kind of stories

Ten people have ten stories. This is the uniqueness of human being. Even though the timeline is the same, which is during the pandemic. This is because every human has different journey and they will reflect based on what they see and think. Such an interesting book to have. Hope to know more. Nice book!

This has been such a wonderful find! With no where to go and time on my hands, this book was a real treat. My only complaint was that the stories were so good, that I didn’t feel that I got enough. Can the author please make another compilation? They were such unique and interesting tales. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Good to read! 👍

Simple yet captivating stories in this book.
They were such unique, interesting and hilarious tales from across Malaysia and well worth picking up a copy!
Nonetheless, I'd say this is a must read considering the pandemic is not over yet.
