4.0

I really enjoyed this short story book, I pretty much liked every one of them except for one or 2.

The author here did a great job at making chilling and sometimes combining scare and laughter.

I was able to guess some twists and some other not, I couldn't guess most of them which shows this originality of the stories.

I like the writing style and tone of the author, it is immersive while being simple in a very good way.

I like the little poems in between some stories.
