Kallie's Review of PROVIDENCE by Caroline Kepnes
Jon and Chloe are best friends. They have a favorite food together. They have a secret place together. They have secret feelings for each other. Before Jon can confess his feelings to Chloe, he is kidnapped by his super crazy substitute. The substitute has a weird thing for H.P. Lovecraft, plants, and "saving humanity."
Keely's Review of MY HUNGRY FRIEND by Daniel Barnett
Have you ever had one of those days when you swear that one more uninvited human interaction may make you unravel? Where you know that the employee selling miniature drones at the shopping mall is just doing their job but, if that drone is still following you 10 feet from now, you may just snatch it out of the air and shove it down their throat?

Chandra's Review of Growing Things by Paul Tremblay
I have a love/hate relationship with short story anthologies. I have GREAT respect for authors who write these as I feel these are harder to write than the full novel as you're putting an entire story together in under 7,500 words. Those that do it well, do it WELL and those are the ones I like but I'll be honest, it's very few and far between where they get me. I am one of those who prefer that full novel, or even the extended short story ala novelette/novella. It's hard to say I...
