Reviews

[David · Rating 4 out of 5]

I've already written a review of this book on my blog but to summarise a collection of sad, melancholy tales of people ruined by their vices and such. There is one rather good ghost story hidden in the mix too but I will not give names so either look up my full review (good luck finding it : P) or read the whole thing, prefferably both.
