This is what I've finished so far. My netbook turned retarded, and broke up all of my anthologies into their individual stories.Wet Teeth by Cecil CastellucciEwww now that's a new take on the art of vampire feeding. The plot though was really nice, and reminded me of watching an old black and white ...
I am aware there was controversy surrounding this editor, so I had checked this out of the library. Because the original blog post detailing what happened has been taken down, I can only go by hearsay. Apparently in later anthology, one of the authors wanted to include a homosexual love story and Te...
Donna hides her arms under gloves to hide the iron and silver tattoos that gave her back the use of those arms after a faerie creature damaged them when she was young. The same incident where her father died. Her mother is suffering from a mysterious ailment that resembles a mental illness and she...
I expected a different setting when I read the summary for the book. I thought this would be a dystopian universe where people knew what the iron branding on her arm meant, and that's why Donna is ostracized.

1. Falling to Ash (Darkest Powers Trilogy #.01) by Kelley Armstrong (Women of Otherworld) - 4 stars Offered free here. This is a good short connected to the world in the The Darkest Powers trilogy.

I probably should not have liked this book as much as I did given the familiar elements and progression, but somehow it had its moments of bringing me into the overarching story. I didn't go into this novel with high expectat...
True to the title, these short stories are dark. Don’t go into it expecting warm fuzzies and happy endings, because they don’t exist. That didn’t make them unlikable, though! These stories are full of myths, magic and a lot of imagination.What I love about collections of short stories is that it giv...
One of the better anthologies I've read. My absolute favourite story in this collection is Life in a Shoe by Heidi R. Kling, one of the more faithful stories to it's original nursery rhyme -"There Was an Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe".As Blue as the Sky and Just as Old by Nina Berry ★☆☆☆☆Based on "T...
4.5/5An eerie collection of stories adapted from famous Mother Goose Rhymes, Two and Twenty Dark Tales gave me chills and some of the stories will haunt me for some time! It's amazing how authors have subverted the nature of the rhymes to something even darker than I could have ever imagined, and th...
