Quick surprising read
Now this was a fun short story. Just enough character development to make you think you know what’s gonna happen, then BAM! I didn’t NOT expect that. Very well done and worthy of a read if your looking for a quickie with a punch.

Not Nice At All
A great introduction to this author's work. Quick paced and suspenseful, I could never guess where this was leading. Definitely surprised at the ending; my mind never went there.
