I have been unsettled for the past few months, i couldn’t read, everytime i read a few pages, my mind wander here and there…
i have known about this book and when it was released i downloaded it, i was thinking this book will be awesome since each story will be up to 140 characters and i don’t have to focus much!
i started reading it, the first night i consumed 1/3 of it, it was amazing, the creativity was paramount, the tweeps who participated in this book are nothing short of amazing. 2 days later the book was finished, i cant stress how many stories i loved and highlighted.
i hope there would be another edition of this book, it is a delight to read, a delight to connect with the stories and those who wrote them.
