A short story collection by C.J. Tudor, yes please!
First and foremost, read the personal introduction then dive in! Also, each short story has a brief explanation as to what inspired her to write that short story.
I am not always a fan of short stories, but I am a fan of C.J. Tudor, so I dove in and was not disappointed. With most short story collections, there are ones that I like more than others and those that do not work for me.
Every single short story in this book worked for me!!!!!! True, there were ones that I enjoyed more than others, but everyone was enjoyable (and fun)! Some were darker than others, but all were original, well thought out and creepy. I usually get upset with short stories due to feeling that just as they were getting good, they end. But here I thought Tudor ended them at the appropriate times. She provides the thrills and chills in her imaginative stories.
If you are a fan of short stories, a fan of Tudor and looking to try something new – look no further!
Tudor has established herself as a solid horror writer and now she has proven that she can nail the short story as well.
Creative, well written and dark!
