Có 2 truyện ngắn trong sách này thì mình chỉ thích truyện đầu, cũng là tựa của cuốn sách này luôn nên về việc có thích cuốn này hay không thì cá nhân mình kiểu 50/50. Truyện 1 thì vì góc nhìn là dựa trên xác chết của một bé gái nên nó có chút kì dị và ghê rợn. Nhưng khi đã quen rồi thì thật ra truyện vẫn hơi khiên cưỡng và nhiều tình tiết nó được tạo ra để thúc đẩy sự căng thẳng và hồi hộp khi đọc thì với mình nó chưa được thuyết phục. Truyện 2 thì cái cây hay quả chi chi đó cộng ám ảnh quá khứ để giải thích cho việc ảo tưởng giữa người và búp bê thật sự quá ảo rồi nên thôi không đánh giá nữa vì mình không thích truyện ngắn này.
