Absolutely captivating. I honestly couldn't put this book down, I devoured it in 3 nights, reading long past everyone falling asleep. McQueen's writing is so gripping, I felt a little spooked at times reading these short stories. I am a big fan of modern horror/thriller, and these stories definitely fit, they're subtle but chilling, think American Horror Stories as a book. A strangely cozy little book to snuggle up with on long cold nights in the run up to Christmas.
