Summary: Seen Reading is a collection of micro fictions based Julie Wilson’s blog and online movement of the same name. Categorized as “Canada’ s pre-eminent literary voyeur”, Julie Wilson wrote a number of stories inspired by sightings of people reading on Toronto transit. Each sighting was the starting off point for a short piece of fiction.
My thoughts: I really enjoyed reading the stories in the book and have since checked out the blog as well. It is great concept to base these really short stories on random sightings of book readers. Each story nicely tied in some aspect of the reader and/or the book being read. I definitely added to my ever growing list of books to read.
