review 1: I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed these short storiesNever Stop on a Motorway - was an exciting thriller which had me on the edge of my seat. It is a story I will remember for a long time The Queen's Birthday Telegram - the weaker of the four stories to be honest this story didn't make a lot of sense and was poor compared to the others.Stuck on You - is a cleaver tale that leaves you guessing until the end with a nice twist Don't drink the water - Is a brilliant story which makes you both laugh and be amazed at the twist in the endOverall a quick read that is worth picking up.
review 2: I downloaded this from Amazon for my World Book Night reading challenge for the bargain price of 89p! At the time of writing this post it's 59p! Grab yourself a bargain my book
... more friends.The four short stories included in this quick read are Never Stop on the Motorway, The Queen's Birthday Telegram, Stuck On You and Don't Drink the Water and from the first few pages I was gripped and really enjoyed all four.However, my favourite two were Never Stop on the Motorway and Don't Drink the Water as these both created a huge amount of tension in such a short space of time that continued beginning to end. I guessed what was happening in Don't Stop and it felt very familiar. I know I haven't read this story before so maybe something similar has been used in TV or film somewhere (read and let me know if you think the same) bu that didn't stop the sweaty palm situation as I was reading!They are very different stories with very different themes but what they do have in common is that they're all well paced and all have a really good twist at the end. I would definitely recommend and would like to read more from Jeffrey Archer. less

Enjoyable as ever. Nothing new, these are four of his short stories and great to read.

I didn’t find any of these short stories gripping or that original.

Very easy to read, group of short stories-poolside fodder
