Mild spoilers contained herein:Truly one of my all-time favorite books. I read it at least once a year and have lost count of my total reads. It's not one of those where I "find something new every time." It's one where I feel I'm slipping completely into another world that I know, fear, and adore; ...

Endlich mal wieder eine Horrorstory, die mein Kopfkino amtlich zu Liegestütz und Zehnkampf angeregt hat! Straff und auf den Punkt erzählt, Kutteln und Blut schwungvoll aber fein dosiert so geschildert, dass die eigene Phantasie gepflegt über die Stränge schlagen kann, verpackt in einem schön schräge...

Thank god that's over. I had the book in my car multiple times to take back to the library but I really wanted to be able to say I've read it. It was very well written but that didn't redeem it much for me.

They thought to use and shame me but I win out by nature, because a true freak cannot be made. A true freak must be born.Geek Love is an amazing book, audacious, moving, beautiful, substantive, creepy, upsetting, tragic and dark. So you think of yourself as different, an outsider, a freak in one wa...

This seemed appropriate to read around Halloween!I was actually surprised at the quality and variety of the stories featured here. You'd think that the concept (asking authors to write a story about Stoker's vampire hunter) might get a bit one-note, but no. There's some really good stuff here, from ...
