I've always been a lover of short stories, and this book was enjoyable. I mainly read the stories on my bus journeys to and from college, and I was hooked! (I almost missed my stop a few times because I didn't want to stop reading them).
However, some of the endings were very predictable, and I could sort of guess what was going to happen from about halfway through. But regardless of this I did enjoy them and some of the stories were very tense !!
