Die Kurzgeschichten sind Gothic-inspiriert.
.
Das Buch enthält auf 50 Seiten insgesamt zehn Kurzgeschichten, es lässt sich also wahnsinnig schnell lesen. Allerdings haben die Geschichten es nicht geschafft, irgendwelche Gothic-Feelings in mir hervorzurufen und auch wirklich gruselig war es nicht. Fü mich war das Buch also leider ein Reinfall.

Stuff Your EReader Find!
Was a quick read filled with grammar mistakes and spelling issues. However there was a story quip that I really was drawn to called 'The Black Rose'. That story was a 10/10 spooky read.
