From Me to You
I’ve read Joshua Scribner before, so was keen to read this latest short. What he does really well is establish his lead characters and the initial tension in the first few pages – this tale did it in the first few paragraphs.

An unsettling read. The book begins with an author’s note about where the inspiration for where the story originated – which sets up the read nicely. A grain of truth can often help a tale take root more easily. There are small black and white chapter ...more |
