Mixed feelings about this one all the way around

Some of the stories were good, some weren't. Some of the narration was good, some wasn't. Nothing was terrible or a waste of time though, and I think if you like these types of stories, you should definitely give this a shot!

Scary Stories For Stormy Nights (grown up)

I bought this purely to support Lucy Kay's work and I must say, I definitely got more than I bargained for! each story was entertaining, left me thinking, cringing, sad, laughing, and lost in the words. Frencesca's tales are wonderful and imaginative, and Lucy and Spencer are AMAZING narrators (which I already knew Lucy would kill it). Thank you all for enriching my life with this book! 💚💚💚💚
