Spin a Black Yarn by Josh Malerman
This particular ARC sat on my self long than I wanted to knowing once I started I would have to finish.
I am a HUGE fan of Josh Malerman. He makes imagery alive and refreshing, even it is dark. There's something about his author's writing style that's irresistible regardless of if I like the book (as a whole) or not. With this collection of short stories, I REALLY liked the first half, and although I wasn't too wild about the second half..
A mix of horror, mystery, thriller, and science fiction. I am not the biggest fan of science fiction, so in those novellas, it felt short, for me, but it was none the less interesting. It should not really deter you from reading the book.
My advice is to give this a read if you enjoy mind twists and dark human nature Your mind will unravel, like yarn, leave you in a knot a few times, leaving, you think, untying, your thoughts out of the peculiar quandary.
My advice is to give this a read if you enjoy mind twists and dark human nature coming alive. It will get the knots and stitching patterns in your mind, moving with each peculiar quandary.
I would rate this book a 3.5, overall. Systems like GoodReads and others make it hard as hard stars do not exist, so I had to get crafty of my website and Book instagram for my followers. (check it out!)
Thank you Netgalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine for this ARC.
