Jan 30, 2018
Oh man i fall more and more in love with this author. I love her stories and this one was amazing. I loved seeing how miranda gets through everything she went through and still loves someone else. I loved seeing nick again but feel so bad for him. i have realized that I wish I had read these before the evil trilogy though. But, no biggies. amazing series

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

Set in Oregon, but way cooler to visit than Portland
Full story that ends nicely, with a nerd champion who's behavior and perspectives are realistic and attainable. Makes you question modern games in ways Enders Game or similar stories have not. Also, if you do the audiobook, Wil Wheaton narrates, and he's a wonderful narrator.

Good gravy this book is amazing! I was not 100% sure I would like it given the fact it's not typically the type of book I'd read, but I'm so glad I took a chance on it as I learned a great deal from this book and thoroughly enjoyed the ride the book give. I would definitely recommend this book, even if you're not typically one that goes for historical stories.
The next to last collection of comic strips from Calvin and Hobbes features the nine month break creator Bill Watterson took. There aren't as many stories, although the familiar themes are still present. And the laughs for fans new and old are just as strong as they were 20 years ago.

Pete Ingalls wakes up in the hospital certain he's a great PI, so he sets up a new office. But will he be in over his head when he gets two clients? A spoof on the classic PI stories of old, and an entertaining mystery to boot.

<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.

<b><i>Romance at short notice was her specialty.</i></b>
This was not what I was expecting. This appears on a list called "50 of the scariest short stories of all time" and this isn't' scary, it's a comedy. My rating is probably swayed because I was expecting something completely different to what I got.
Never mind, it was only 6 pages to read and it was still enjoyable.

Multiple Main Charecters (1 more)
Short Stories
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.

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 =)
