5.0
Kitchen Sink is a collection of horrors brilliantly told. They are unsettling, clever and at times funny. There's different genres of horror in this novel Hamilton really did think of it all from creatures to time travel, to a terrible Christmas eve and whispers from a kitchen sink.
The story's are of depression and loss, of fear and love. Hamilton is such a gifted writer as his story's come together so cleverly that every ending left me in awe! 28 short stories collected together as one horrifying mash-up.
It's hard to pick favourites but Hamilton really hit the ground running with Hive, it was so unsettling and it left my skin itching, I'll definitely remember that one! Happy Hour was also another favourite. It left me worried as to what would happen if Hamilton and Nick Harper (authour of Lonley Carcass Song) went out on a night out together as they've both written a short story that starts off as a simple pint but ends up in a blood massacre.
I could go on for ever describing every story but you have my word if you're a fan of horror you'll absolutely love this!
