Customer Reviews

Haunting...

I got this book in a used bookstore expecting it to be a cheap one time read. However that was not the case at all. Every single one of the stories are extremely interesting with unique ideas. Out of all of them however, the best is "Stuck"- the story about a girl stuck between two worlds and her choice about whether or not to leave her own world for the next. In any case, I highly recommend this book even if it is a little too short.
