This was a fantastic collection of short stories and was extremely good with its varied mix of stories and most of them left an impression on me, there were only a few I didn’t care for but they wernt terrible or unreadable. All the stories were written extremely well and there’s definitely something in them for everyone. Overall I very much enjoyed this collection of stories and I think they flowed into each other quite well and was put together in a coherent effective way that didn’t feel strange. I’d very much recommend this collection for the wide array of stories and the different genres king can write in, everything’s eventual offers horror, fantasy, realism, melodrama and themes of grief, death, loss and childhood as well as trauma and nostalgia. My personal favourites from the collection were the man in the black suit, the little sisters of eluria, all that you love will be carried away, lunch at the goth ham cafe, 1408 and everything’s eventual.
