Lauren Andrea's Reviews > Something Borrowed, Something Blood-Soaked

Excellent work, Christa. This book of horror short stories was, oddly enough, a joy to read. I think I blasted through this in like a day and a half? And that's unusual for me. I think my favorite was "Liquid Handcuffs"--though I felt the twist coming, it still punched me right in the gut. I loved that the stories weren't all about traditional horror subjects like gore and ghosts (not that there was a lack of gore or ghosts by any means). Many of them were about real-life, heart-wrenching horrors like addiction and sexual assault. These tales will sit with me for a long time, eating away at my soul (to my encouragement). Am I a horror fan now? What have you done to me?!
