I happily admit to being a bit of a scaredy-cat and I gotta say, these short stories did scare me a little. Not too much, but just enough that it was enjoyable without being awful. The stories are short and well-crafted, but some of them are maybe a bit on the too-short side; they didn't feel as "done" as the rest. My favourites were Bus Stop and Little House in the Sea - I hated Viola Bloom because it scared me to bits :')
