This is a short collection of stories that touch upon the macabre. I thoroughly enjoyed them. They benefit from being well crafedt to the degree that Emma gets a great deal out of a few hundred words. Most enjoyable to sit down with a cup of tea and jeopardy. ( )

Yikes. A lot of creepy AF short stories, most with a last-sentence or last-paragraph twist. If you like horror, these are for you. I don’t, so I don’t know why I kept reading ... but I finished. ( )

As the title suggest we are dealing with stories of dark places, very often the dark corner of your mind. There are men, brought to despair by their wives, so much they become killers, little girls with magical talents that are turned against her, frogs that are no princes and never will be, minds in whose corners madness is lurking, Mr.Darcy (yes, that one) breaking up marriages, we learn the truth behind the great people like Jesus, why they are born on this world,meet the woman who dies frequently, and read about many other strange and often slightly warped happenings. These are short stories that make you wish they'd be novels - you want more, you need to know how and from where and why. ( )
