A Sunny Place for Shady People: Stories | Mariana Enriquez

pick

Another short story collection winner from Enriquez.

These stories focuses on the horrific in the everyday, in relationships and how generational trauma effects us. I think that is what makes these stories so scary. Like in the first story where a young boy dies in a troubled neighborhood because no one dares open their door and he comes back to hunt them.

CSeydel What a cover! 1d

This collection of stories really satisfied the prompt! I like a short story collection as a palette cleanser, maybe a transition to my next mood reads.

For those that loved Our Share of Night this is a lovely little collection of short stories whilst we wait in anticipation for the next chunkster.
I‘m not a big short story fan but I loved these like I love Kings- imaginative and creepy and slightly melancholy.
Turning into a favourite author, write quicker please.
Emma- you‘ll love these! Thanks Helen š

Oryx, squirrelbrain, Bookwomble

squirrelbrain I was worried as I knew you weren‘t a huge short story fan, but I thought the author might win out! 2mo

BarbaraBB Sounds good 2mo

TrishB @squirrelbrain the author definitely wins out! 2mo

Today is my birthday. What better way to spend it than visiting a bookstore?

In Norway stores are generally closed on Sundays, but there‘s some exceptions & one is a newly opened bookstore downtown, Prismatic Pages. They sell books in English, new & old

The stack on the left are the books I bought there

I view all the books I buy in September as birthday presents to myself, so the stack on the right & the comics are bought earlier this month

Amiable Happy birthday! šˇ‚šˇšˇ 3mo

Super creepy horror short stories? Yes! This author? Double yes! This is an auto read author for me. I love the setting (Argentina) and I love how each story is unique. She has the creep factor mastered. I love them all.
