Book Review – The Merry Spinster

Cover image for The merry spinster : tales of everyday horror / Mallory Ortberg.

By Daniel Mallory Ortberg

This horror anthology transforms fairy tales and classic children’s stories into creepy, unnerving tales that will genuinely give you the chills. “The Rabbit” is a particular stand out if you’re a fan of unsettling horror. I also love how Ortberg plays with gender as a way to play with traditional stereotypes in fairy tales.

Book Review – Sea Prayer

By Khaled Hosseini

A short story that could be a quick read – but do take the time to read it slowly and let the words soak in. A short book, but the message will stay with you for a long time.
