Flashing My Shorts by Salvatore Buttaci

Share it Please
Genre: Collections (Often referred to as Anthologies, but not nearly as boring!)

Review:  This is a self-published book with over 100 short stories, flash fiction and drabbles. (No, I did not make those terms up! This is real!) Each was written by Salvatore and they are all interesting, exciting and entertaining. This is a great little book for anyone who does not have time to read a whole book, but craves a good story. There are so many genres packed into this little book! He has paranormal, dark comedy, science fiction, romance, and pretty much anything else you can think of! The author has a sharp wit and a twisted sense of humor that I find refreshing. One warning: DO NOT SIT DOWN AND READ THIS BOOK ALL AT ONCE. It is never good to have that much of a roller coaster of emotions! Although the author has taken a painstaking effort to make the book flow, much like a CD album flows; each story creates an emotion and deserves its own individual thoughts. To voraciously devour it as I did is highly dangerous to one’s mental psyche!



Author: Salvatore Buttaci is a retired school teacher who I would have thoroughly enjoyed having in school! He is witty, charming, funny and thought-provoking. His wife Sharon is a wonderful support to his creative process and may even be considered his muse! He has several self-published works available and you can purchase this book or any of his many others by going to Salvatore Buttaci's Website
