A review by sammah
Halloween Carnival Volume 5 by Brian James Freeman
2.0
Note: I received an eARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review!
I...was not very impressed with this collection of Halloween-centric tales. Most of them were rather boring, and I found myself drifting away mid-sentence to think of other things. Even the Peter Straub tale didn't do it for me, and I usually enjoy him. It wasn't outright horrible or anything, just not what I would have anticipated from a collection of Halloween stories. I want something to get me into the holiday mood, but this just wasn't it.
