Paper Dolls, I felt was perfect for a full length story
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

6 short stories, of the horror/paranormal variety.

So, here's the thing.

I like short stories, I really do. The skill with a short is, you gotta grab the reader, and hold on for those few pages and not let go.

And here, I was only grabbed once or twice, and one of those was an excerpt from another collection.

I loved the excerpt from One, which appears in Rock Paper Scissors. That really got me good and excited for this collection, it really did. I'd like to go back and read THAT particular story.

The Swinging Tree was rather good too. That certainly grabbed and didn't let go!

Paper Dolls, I felt was perfect for a full length story. What Zach and Paris could get up to boggles the (obviously very twisted) mind!

But the other stories, while well written and well told, didn't grab me too much.

I think it would have better, for ME, had I not read these short stories back to back. Maybe if I had read one, then something else, then come back to these, I might have enjoyed them better.

But still, an enjoyable way to pass an hour.
