Publisher's summary

Something strange is in your neighborhood, your bedroom, your body. Are ghosts haunted by the living? Is possession ever good? Are there strangers in the shadows—just like you—altering reality with dark, peculiar urges?

Meet the members of the Equinox Society: Claire, a caustic but compassionate demonologist; Amanda, a witch who wants to help; William, an occultist living in a haunted brownstone; and other ordinary people who share a fascination with the bizarre and otherworldly.

Their reports explore private fears and personal demons, offering glimpses of the nightscape all of us inhabit. A troubled vampire who stalks an abandoned shopping mall. A dead teen who emails from the past. An arsonist who starts real fires with her dreams.

My Heart Is Full of Blood is an unflinching yet oddly optimistic collection of short horror fiction.

Light and Fun

This collection of short stories is easy to listen to, but not so engaging that you can’t do other things. It’s like listening to music with clever lyrics.

Good ideas done kind of flat

There's a lot of fun and interesting stories in this collection, but it feels like they're all a couple drafts short of being finished. They read like reports, listing the events, but not very evocative. I'd love to read a couple of these in a different style. The readers were pretty good, I liked a couple more than others, but I think it mostly has to do with the flat writing style than their abilities or direction.

so so

UT was OK. Some of the stories lacked a little something. Ine is existential. Didn't see the point in that one.

Surprise Book

I’m not sure how this book landed in my account, I didn’t place an order for it, but I gave it a listen out of curiosity. I enjoyed all of the stories and found them intriguing. The narrators were great as well. If you are looking for something interesting check it out.

book review #G1

Simply one of the most talented telling of tales I've cross in a min. Not the norm and that's a great thing

Really Weird Stories

Really Weird Stories. I’m not sure how I got through these (probably as white noise) but I did. I’m a fan of narrator Cary Hite - which brought me to this book - definitely not his best work and it may have even been his FIRST work. The narrators were all pretty good, the stories were just weird as hell. I did my time… can’t get those hours back… moving on.
