Januaries has 12 different stories inside divided by four seasons, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter.
I don’t know how to review this book, I have mixed feelings for each story.
I find some of the stories quite interesting
Some are too short that I wished they are developed into a full length novel instead
Some are very thought-provoking
But some are also confusing and too long….

Out of 12 stories, there are only a few that I like such as The Wished Bridge, The Animation Games, To Make a Man, Chaos Theory, The Audit
