The Mist is one of the creepiest stories I've ever read. I can't explain it, but my heart was beating fast the entire time.

There were several stories in here that I really liked, and one or two that really didn't do anything for me. I'd say if it wouldn't have been for the one or two that I personally didn't care for, I would have given this a rare 5 stars. Several of the stories were no less than terrific, and the book as a whole is worth reading. Who knows, the couple I didn't care all that much for may end up being your favorite. You should definitely find out.
