Reading previews this month was maddening! Since they're short stories, the preview can be a large chunk of the first story but not all of it, as with the Leskov. I really enjoyed the story but now need to finish it somehow. I don't want to buy the book since I won't be reading it entirely for the time being, so maybe I'll have a look at the local library, or actually stop by a true-blue brick and mortar bookstore again (for once) and have a cup of tea while finishing it up.
