You've Lost a Lot of Blood by Eric LaRocca
3.0
This is a tough one to rate because you essentially are reading two stories, or three I guess if you include the editor, but I failed to find a connecting piece outside of "a character in Story A wrote Story B". I enjoyed the title story (has a Soma/Amnesia feel) but struggled a bit with Marcus's story and poems. Felt very reminiscent of old school creepy pastas which I think is why I am not looking too too hard for connections between the two as I quite enjoy those. It kind of have a "found footage" vibe, but in book form.
I feel like what may be needed to connect the two pieces is possibly a Story C. This book is a compilation of a serial killer's written work and recordings. But that's really it. It doesn't have a point why it's compiled. So while interesting, it does feel like somethings missing.
