A review by vermidian
100 Ghastly Little Ghost Stories by Robert E. Weinberg, Mary Hunter Austin, Stefan Dziemianowicz

dark mysterious slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.75

So as I read these, I rated each of these stories out of 5 total possible stars and averaged the difference at the end. I wound up with a 2.86 rating. Since the average rating on Goodreads was much higher and the fact that I don't recommend reading this book, I rounded down. This book had some good stories, but they were few and far between. I'll list the ones I found worth reading and their scores out of 5 in the parenthesis next to them, in case you're scouring for good ones among the many boring and bad ones.
