Home Improvement: Undead Edition (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
The title on this one grabbed me. It's been awhile since I read horror short stories and IMHO Stephen King is a master of this genre - so I'll make that clear going in. There were only two stories I didn't read - they just didn't spark any interest. What I particularly like about this collection is the variety - ghosts, vampires, things I've never heard of and even pixies. I'm certainly going to check out Death's Excellent Vacation and Wolfsbane and Mistletoe. Nice anthology. Only one story I didn't like, which is pretty amazing.Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.5 stars... I loved this book! It had earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.
What do You think about Home Improvement: Undead Edition (2011)?
Some of the stories were good, but I am still not a big fan of the short story format.

I read the short story from the Sookie-verse, "If I Had a Hammer."

It was really good, I mean was scared but a good scared.
