Book so nice I had to read it twice. The first time I went slow, and the second time I devoured it in one sitting. Things were much clearer the second time. Hands down this will probably always be in my top 3 best short stories I've ever read. At the moment, it's number 1. Such a spooky read, perfect for Halloween.
