What an amazing selection of flash stories! Many great ideas that sent shivers down my spine. Very short, often everyday situations, great perspectives. The author here really has talent! One of my favourites here was Hobb's End. If you want enjoy bits and pieces of horror like M&Ms this is your treasure box. Highly recommended!
