Gramma. 4/5
Actually so scary
One of the best yet

Milkman #1 & #2
I’m gonna lose it

Uncle Otto’s Truck. 3/5
He’s able to make an inanimate object scary.

Survivor Type: 3/5
Disturbing.
God the experience of reading this book has gone exponentially downhill the more I read.

Nona: 4/5
Good read good writing weird story
For Owen: 0/5

Beachworld: 3/5
The Reaper’s Image: 2/5
Beachworld reminds me of Love, Death, & Robots
The Reaper’s Image reminds me of the mirror Feyre had to look into in ACOWAR

The Man Who Would Not Shake Hands: 3/5.
Some of the weaker short stories here really just feel like: “What if this man accidentally killed people when he touched them, that’s why he couldn’t shake their hand?”. The Raft and the Word Processor of the Gods feel more fleshed out because the characters are more established.

Word Processor of the Gods: 4/5.
Again like the concept, but again unlikable character. Everyone has to be demeaning towards women?

The Raft: 4/5
Great concept. So terrifying, unsettling

Paranoid: A Chant. 1/5
Really not enjoying some of these

The Wedding Gig: 2/5
Woah whiplash. First you’re hit with the n-word then it’s followed up with insanely over the top fatphobia.

The Jaunt. 4/5
Dystopian. Crazy ending

Mrs. Todd’s Shortcut: 5/5
Magical mystical

Cain Rose Up: 1/5
Genuinely what the fuck

The Monkey. 3/5
Creepy but didn’t wow me

Here There Be Tygers. 1/5
Wasn’t a fan

Finished The Mist. 4/5
Horribly terrifying concept, like A Quiet Place

there’s just something about Stephen King’s writing that feels so unique and familiar and engaging it’s so easy to read his books

horribly unbelievably depressing

this is so frickin embarrassing to pull out on the bus and metro

the writing is so beautiful

Very beauty and the best retelling so far
Love how Tamlin said “I can either tear you to shreds in front of your family or… come live with me ;)”
I know I’m meant to be shipping Feyre with Tamlin but I so bad want smt to happen between her and Lucien right now
Overall slow start and minimal world building but finally getting into it

been taking a break from this. I really would like to finish this as I really loved the first third but I’m just so bored. Not officially DNF-ing

joining Brooke’s book club 🥳

I’m so bored but I don’t want to DNF there’s just sooooooo much left

this book is long man, I feel like I read a whole book and am starting a new one now
really good tho may or may not have cried on the metro several times while reading

got so spooked reading this in bed last night
