A review by chelseazhao
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark by Alvin Schwartz

dark fast-paced

3.0

While this is a reread for me, it has been so so long that it felt like I was reading this collection for the first time.

I liked that some of the stories were ones that I remembered from my childhood as ones that people would tell their friends or younger siblings.

I did think that most of them could have been developed a bit better. They were very short and sometimes too succinct.

Also, there is one story that could be very problematic now that we know not to take some stories from Native American culture.
