Excellent
These were amazing stories. They were all creepy and some were down right frightening. I loved them and can't wait to start book 2

This was trying to be like the Twilight Zone, but didn't really hit its goal.

Nice collection of stories!
I enjoyed the variety of story themes. The characters were well-defined, and the plots were clear and had their surprises. Looking forward to reading more from this author!

Excellent book with a hidden gem.
Xlnt book. Every story was good, especially the one titled "Teddy". That was the funniest story I've read in a long time especially when the potato wouldn't come out, and then when it did I was reduced to howling like a mad woman with laughter. My grandson ended up sticking his head around my door asking if I was okay. I highly recommend this book.

Not Too Bad
"Stories to Curl Your Toes" wasn't bad. I can't say that the stories curled my toes, though! Still, there are some unique ideas in this book that I had not encountered previously.
The book could have benefited from better editing. There are a number of typos scattered throughout the text.
Still, if you're looking for an enjoyable quick horror read, you could do a lot worse than "Stories to Curl Your Toes".

Not bad
These stories were a different type of horror. The type of horror that could actually happen in the real world. I think those are the scariest ones there is. I liked the style of writing and how the author wove the stories. I'll be recommending this to my friends that like thrillers without all the blood and gore.

very well worded!
These little stories are very well written and has a bit of a twist. The main character/characters in each stories were very descriptive and I visualized how that person would present themselves! Very well written and a great read!

Decent quick read!
The story about the dust lizard and the nerd were my favorites. Reminds me of a b list version of nightmares and dreamscapes. Pretty well written flows nicely. A twilight zone type styled book.

Unusual stories
I wouldn't say that these stories would curl your toes but a couple of them were interesting.
Therefore I would rate the book 6/10.

What kind of stories were these? Horrible book. Bad stories. It’s like those campfire “scary” stories they would try to frighten you with.
