Kind, But Kind of Weird: Short Stories on Life's Relationships (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578302423)

Joey Held's debut short story collection Kind, But Kind of Weird dissects the relationships among the awkward and the offbeat, the coworkers and the cohabitants, the people waiting in the longest bathroom line at parties, and the passive-aggressive passersby.

In these anything-but-ordinary tales, take a ride with a failing GPS, which leads its lost passengers a bit too close to home . . . Tune in to the world of the one-hit wonder, trying to reclaim his former glory . . . Join an unwilling volunteer onstage as a magician performs the biggest trick yet . . .

Sometimes humbling, sometimes hilarious, and always truthful, Joey Held's stories shine a light on the quirky, the eccentric, and all-too-realistic landscape that colors the relationships we have with one another, and with ourselves.
