First time reading 1984. How people read this in school amazes me. I don't actually know how I feel about this book on a personal level. As for the concept and writing, Orwell was a genius and its surprising how close this book relates to today's living.

Another good, fun story. This time based in Newcastle. Tanz meets a new 'sensitive' this time a healer as they face an evil ghost from 1890s. Hope there'll be a third installment.

I follow the Chilling Tales Podcast and enjoy the short stories. A grim, gorey tale in 9 parts. Not for the weak. Didn't keep my interest as much as part 1 and 2

Some of the stories in this book were very good, nose curling grim which I love, others not so much and I didn't quite understand them so it got an all round 3.
