Instead of Three Wishes: Magical Short Stories

This book contains a collection of really lovely, magical short stories that provide a great twist from the usual fairy-granting-wishes business. From leprechauns and cockroaches, to portraits and pastries, it is one of my favourite fantasy books of all time which I have reread oodles of times. The stories have a way of lingering i your mind for days and one story fascinates you after another. Megan Whalen Turner has a magical way of crafting her stories that leaves you feeling enraptured and uplifted as you immerse yourself in her stories.
