Everything dark and twisty (0 more)
Must read for horror fans
This is a book with selected short stories from Adam Nevill. All dark and twisted in their own right.

<strong>Brilliant</strong>

Wow my anxiety levels reading these stories were through the roof! From the very first to the very last, each story had a new way of making me want to close the book and find something fluffy and happy to read.
Adam Nevill has such an amazing way of bringing you right into the world he's created. Being from Birmingham reading Always in our hearts really struck home as I read about familiar roads I travel daily I was able to feel the anxiety he built up travelling those roads too. The character creation is next to none I just can't believe it's taken this long to read these brilliant stories!!


I had a few sleepless nights also throw a few nightmares in too. They are so dark and twisted playing on emotional and mental well-being of the characters, which are done so well.

Definitely a must read for any Horror fan!!

Just the book I needed
I read most of this in a single sitting, I couldn’t put it down, nor did I want to. The story takes place over a weekend at a convention, so it is fairly fast paced. There are two alternating perspectives, Taylor and Charlie, both were wonderfully written. I really related to them, especially Taylor who is an introvert, who struggles with anxiety, also she has autism. A lot of what she said really spoke to me, this book is just really well written and I fully recommend it.

I absolutely loved reading this book. I am a great fan of Kazuo Ishiguro and this is the fourth book I have read by him. The concept of memory and the dream-like state of the book is fascinating and kept me enthralled throughout. My one warning about this book is the author describes it as an “anxiety dream” and I think this is definitely accurate. I spent the entire time stressed about the forgotten engagement and lack of control the main character had over his own story. But Ishiguro pulled it off so well!
