I've noticed I'm on a DNF role this year with two whole (technically half) books I've given up on. Still not sure what the protocol is with rating DNF books, but I'm marking this as read, since it wasted five days of my life I could have spent reading something else.
Most of this collection is excellent; a few are decent and there are only one or two in the anthology that I didn't care for at all. The theme of the anthology is haunted houses but many of the stories use a very creative interpretation of what constitutes a haunted house. ( )

I've never seen a ghost, I've never stayed in a haunted house, and I don't believe in revenants seeking revenge from beyond the grave, yet the supernatural in fiction continues to fascinate me. -Jonathan Oliver, Introduction
Since we divorced twenty years ago, my ex-husband Michael and I have rarely met, but we have always kept in touch. I wish now that we hadn't. -Lisa Tuttle, Objects in Dreams May Be Closer Than They Appear
