I enjoyed this short story book so much that I read it in one sitting. The tales here are unique and original, each with a surprise ending that you don't expect to go the way it does.One of the things that I really liked about this compilation of stories, is that even thought they are short, the author managed to give the reader a sense of surrounding and who her characters are. I found it was easy to care about them, even in a shorter space of time than one finds in a full length book.The creativity with which these stories were written is a testament to the vibrant imagination of the author. This book takes the childhood fears as well as the more adult fears we all have at one time in our life or another and explores them in new ways.Another reason this book impressed me was that rather than just going for the fright factor, the author included other types of chills. Characters in very emotional situations gave weight to this collection that it would not have had otherwise. Fear, Sorrow,regret,sadness all work together to make this a complete book of Psychological and emotional chills.I did read this book whilst alone in the dark, and for a book entitled "Chills," it certainly had the desired effect. I look forward to reading more work from this author.This review is based on a digital copy provided by the author for the purpose of review. All opinions are my own.
