Reread this recently and the stories are still just as good as before. ( )

Presented as an anthology for teens and young adults, this collection of short stories is recommended for anyone interested in fresh riffs in the horror genre. ( )

Excellent horror collection, though some of the stories relied a little too much on "scary mental illness". ( )

This book or rather stories were amazing. There were creepy and scary. A few were predictable, but some were scaring me as I listened to the audiobook and freaked out while driving lonely woods. Any fan of Alice in Wonderland would like this as well as King or Gaiman. ( )

Anthologies are tough because you’re never going to like all the stories – or perhaps I should say almost never. While there were definitely certain stories in this collection that shone brighter than the others, I didn’t dislike any of them. They were all interesting and well written and clever! While the theme was YA horror shorts, these would easily be enjoyed by adult fans of the genre as well. ( )
