Really loved some of the short stories in here. The only reason I didnt give it a 5 was because on principle Im not the niggest short story fan and I wouldve like a few adult "ghost stories".

    I expected this to be a book full of horror stories. I was pleasantly surprised to find all sorts of tales lurking inside. I really enjoyed this book a lot.
