Reviews

  • The Madhouse

    By BellaOfTheShire
    Lucas’s horror story starts when he learns his parents intend to get a divorce. His plan to get them back together leads to danger. If he ever returns to his parents, will he even be safe there? The imagery in this short piece were disturbingly vivid. Unfortunately, some of the story’s power got lost in typos and poor words choices that rudimentary editing should have caught.
  • Read in one sitting.

    I haven’t read in years. Just this year 2025, I promised myself I would begin to read more. I’m a huge horror fan and never thought of reading horror books. This is my first book of this type of horror I’ve ever read. The moment I started reading it definitely had my attention from start to finish. I ended up getting the all of Miguel Estradas books. I tried to look up Miguel on social media as well to give him a follow and couldn’t find anything about him. I don’t have facebook but noticed a Facebook page that hadn’t been updated since 2019. I want to keep up with his works. Hopefully there’s updates in the future! I’m a lifelong fan moving forward Miguel!
  • Not terrible but not an easy read.

    By FrankThomasMew
    It sounds a little bit like English is not this persons first language, which is okay. It just sounds very choppy, and something’s were reiterated that didn’t need to be.

    I started reading this book, but didn’t finish because I do not like books were children are involved with killers. What I read was good quality, except for the spelling had not been edited well.
