My husband has a conference so I decided to host a readathon! I'm hoping to get through at least 2 books. 💐📚

For me, short stories are a challenge to enjoy. I‘ve analyzed my struggle and concluded that‘s because most of them are too short. For instance, with Paul Tremblay‘s short story, In Bloom, I was completely sucked into the beginning. The ending was abrupt. I wish there was about 1-2 more hours, just to expand the story a bit more. I‘ll keep trying short stories; always in hope to read a gem!

You've seen the algae. It turns ponds and rivers and other waterways a bright green. It's dangerous. We all know that. But we don't know how dangerous.

Listened to for #Scarathlon this was my 5th Amazon Creature Feature book. I liked it, but didn‘t love it. While the premise was interesting it ended really abruptly, even for a story.

Not too big on the points either with just 81 #Scarathlon points for Team #SpoonyGhostClub 👻🖤👻

I‘ve been looking forward to listening to this. I‘m a big fan of Paul Tremblay‘s work. This short story is about a suspicious algae overgrowth. It‘s a story-within-a-story. It‘s mildly spooky, but the narration by Dara Rosenberg and AT Chandler made me feel a delicious dread. Length is just 1 hr, 2 minutes.

Only one left for me to listen to in this Creature Feature collection! I‘m sort of sad I‘m almost done with these stories. They‘re so fun.
