Reviewer: Amlyt
The mix of paranormal and horror novellas in this anthology was the perfect balance and it kept my attention from the start right to the very end. They were engaging and reverting reads inspired by some of the best horror authors out there. There's something for everyone. From fiction to romance it will be perfect for any fan of paranormal and horror.
I have to give 4.5 out 5 stars . They were well written novellas, each had a complete story line and were so engaging that you didn’t notice that there were novellas.
