**Received an e-copy in exchange for an honest review**

The best thing I liked about this book is that I had no nightmares despite reading the stories before going to bed.
There are seven short stories, each with a different theme.
The descriptions are vivid, yet there is nothing overly gruesome or horrible. I think the balance of suspense, terror, imagery, and horror has been maintained well in all the stories.
My favorite story would undoubtedly be The Grim Melody followed by Magda. (these two are also the longest of the stories).
The language is simple and easy to read without taking the light away from the storyline.
I did feel that the last story Going Home was a bit too small, but maybe, that's how the writer wanted it. The story still managed to pack a punch.

Overall, anybody looking for some not-so-nightmarish horror stories should definitely try this book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
