This was definitely a cover buy. A solid collection of horror themed short stories. I don't usually care for short stories, but some of these were quite good.

KT1432 Oof this cover gives me the creeps lol! 9h
TheEllieMo That‘s some cover! I have to admit, I find it rather disturbing. But then I‘m not a fan of horror! 4h

Knowledge is power, and truth is knowledge; whoever, therefore, knowingly propagates a prejudice willfully saps the foundation of his country's strength...What have we to do with national prejudices? They are the inveterate diseases of old countries, contracted in rude and ignorant ages, when nations...looked beyond their their own boundaries with distrust and hostility.

(from the sketch English Writers on America)

There were some fun ones in this collection, like Knox's Holmes tribute/pastiche. Trains really are such a fertile ground for mysteries...

Sept 17: I'm probably SUPER BEHIND on my reading goals so will try to read more in the next few weeks. I wasn't really sure what I was in the mood for next but this one's been on my #tbr for a bit so figured why not start it now. It'll be a bit of a break to the fantasy killing ORV 😅 #amreading #koreanlit #shortstories
