Bark at the Ghouls
Bark at the Ghouls rated it 8 years ago
I received this ARC from Netgalley. Thanks, Netgalley! One house, five hauntings, five chilling stories. Oh the Blurbs. Why do they lie? I promised myself this would be the year of the DNF and I am failing quite spectacularly at that promise. The problem is story collections. I may never read an...

I am perplexed by this story and think that the content is almost too clever for the events that they purport to represent. Irongrove Lodge is a house of mystery and intrigue where five separate happenings or ghostly chilling stories unfold so says the blurb.......What actually unfolds is well not...

**** The Case of Death and Honey, Neil Gaiman, (A Study in Sherlock)Actually read this one twice in a row, because it was fun to revisit the details... There may be many Holmes stories set in the famed fictional detective's 'retirement,' but, not being a huge Holmes fan, it unavoidably reminded me o...
Konnici na Liriite - Chevalier Du Lys
This was an interesting reading. I don't know why but usually I am not a big fan of short stories but I am afraid delving into a mammoth book of 600 pages or multi-books series, even at the same time I want to read several series I've got here. But since the other way I slept in my mother's home and...

So incredibly, incredibly sad. Liu enforcers your connection to the characters so easily, making it very difficult (impossible?) to not feel so much.
