These short stories are disturbing which seems to be a trait of the author's. The first short story in the book, "Blue Rose" is about a young boy who figured out how to hypnotize people and he instructs them to kill themselves.
Another story, "Mrs. God is a ghost story of sorts that includes a haunted house.
I really like short story books because you get multiple stories all in one book from the same author. It is like feasting at the author's well.
