Review by Brieanna Henning
This book was interesting. I haven’t read many short stories outside of social media posts, so I was interested in seeing how engaging it would be. Turns out, it is indeed engaging in a more non-committal way. I really appreciated this fact because it allowed me to really sit and enjoy the stories instead of rushing through to find a conclusion.
Most of the stories are less than a page long, but the way they are written still evoked that inner sense of anxiety and dread. Some of the stories left that feeling lingering for far longer than I expected due to the nature of the tales and the foreboding endings. The lack of a natural conclusion or reveal of what dark thing was lingering really left me on edge at times.
Overall, this book was different than a lot of the books I read, but I was still captivated. I can’t wait for the next one to come out.
