My Mini Review:
I bought this short story off of Amazon, and this is my honest review.

I enjoyed this story quite a bit, I was not expecting what happend at all. But once it happened I couldn’t stop turning pages and I was sad when it was over. This story was about a young guy named Cory, who turned out to be I guess a vampire. Which I thought was so random but it was cool. He opened up an old cursed theater and hired an “innocent” teenage girl to man the front. Boy did it go downhill from there.

There were parts in this little story that happened so fast that I was confused which annoyed me a little but it got better quickly. I enjoyed meeting the characters, even though I wished I had more time to get to know them but I feel like thats the point of a short story for you to be introduced to the characters and what to know more.

I enjoyed the mix of Vampires, and ghosts. Normally those two things are usually on their own but putting them both together in a story made it very enjoyable. This small story gets a 4 out of 5 stars.


I hope you all enjoyed this weeks edition of Mini Review Sunday! :)
