13 SCARY STORIES. 13 AUTHORS OF COLOR.
13 TIMES WE SURVIVED THE FIRST KILL.
This is a really incredible book – 13 short stories of horror. Some of these stories I wish could be made into full novels – they are deliciously creepy and fun, but also deal with some really important and heavy topics. Racism, mico aggressions, bigotry, and outright hate are handled in a lot of these narratives. We have everything from fun house mirrors showing the future to a sentient house who’s rather pissed off. Each and every story is fast paced and immediately hooks you in for the entire read. I really do enjoy short stories in the sense that they have to get to the point quickly.
