I found myself surprised so many times in this book. I enjoyed the characters so much.. and they were amusing and funny. These are a collection of short horror stories but honestly they amused me so much I didn't feel as if it was scary but then something would happen and I'd think.. oh.. theres the horror lol. it was awesome and im glad i got to review it

<i>So. Many. Short. Stories.</i>

Sometimes these kinds of weird, old school, random books really hook me, but I can't explain why. This is one of them. This story has the most simple of plot lines, yet it does so well to inflict fear and excitement into the reader.

I loved the writing. I loved the tension. I loved the plot. I loved the psychopath. I loved the ending.

I love the idea of this book.
Enjoyed the idea of of multiple main characters interacting when normally this would be impossible. I love the crossover aspect, and I got to read a bit from authors I haven't experienced yet. a few of them i might want to follow up with and read their books based on it. This is actually brilliant marketing.

Short but sweet, naughty and nice, and sooooo funny, Tiffany Reisz has done it again. A brilliant read for an afternoon, and it's really easy to get along with that its as if you already know the characters.

Such a thoughtful wedding pressie from a character from another book ( sorry, i am not giving it away ;-))

I love the Bell hop, I think I might need more of him x

A real page turner! I've had this book for awhile and having read White Crow by Marcus Sedgwick and loving it, I decided to give Midwinterblood a go.

What am amazing book!! I finished it in less than 24 hours! It's like reading a bunch of short stories that are part of one big story.

I'd definitely recommend this book as it's definitely one of my now faves =)

A decent slow burner
For a fairly short film, 1hr 40mins, it's incredibly slow paced. It feels like a much longer film and could easily have a good 20mins cut from it. Apart from that it's a pretty decent thriller. The trailers are a little misleading, there is little Horror here. The story is good with an ending few will see coming.

Relatable, heart-rending writing
Anne’s honest and open aspirations are cruelly cut short at the end of the diary entries and her life. The universal grief experienced the first time I reached the end (after feeling as though I had become her best friend) will never leave me.

It's ok with a few funny scenes, not quite sure why it's held in such high regard by many?! The sight of Sandler losing it with the clubs and smashing stuff up is over used. A has the odd moment that will make you laugh out loud, but a long shot short of a classic! Odd to see Ben Stiller in such a small, weird role in this?

I mean - for childhood nostalgia this book was alright.. seeing as I'm not a kid anymore it was not all that great lol

What more can I say about this - though it teaches a great life lesson as all the Sabrina shows did ... not much can happen in such a short amount of book ! Definitely reading it to the young one though - or letting her read it, she will love it
