The Wedding Gig - This one kept my attention and was long enough without feeling rushed
Paranoid: A Chant - YES A POEMMMM

The Jaunt - The ending was perfection

Mrs. Todd's Shortcut - this story gave me Fairytale vibes to THE MAX!! One of my favorites from the collection so far

Cain Rose Up - this one was very...interesting

The Monkey - I had high expectations for this story since it was my most anticipated, and it was good, but it could have been better. Most of the "horror" stuff is in flashbacks, and nothing really happens in the present. The story could've been so much better if the main characters were in actual danger, but they all seemed to have plot armor, and King wasted the greatest opportunity at the end imo!!

Here There Be Tygers - this one had made confused at the end, I literally needed to research to see if I was missing something 😂😂 turns out... no its just a story about a boy being afraid to use the school's bathroom which i relate to. Anyhow time to take a little break and get back into A Little Life 😝👀

The mist 😶‍🌫️ - loved how realistic this story, the way the characters react to the situations they're presented highlights how King can make his characters. AND THE ENDING!!! Lowkey loved the openness of it
