Allen Brown2019
Allen Brown makes his debut with a collection of short stories that will leave your skin crawling and your soul flinching. Come along as Young Eddie discovers a carnival ride that promises to be 'out of this world' in 'Destination: Mars', or see things grow out of hand when a vandalizing frat boy gets a unique tattoo in 'Tribal Obligations'.You'll learn that God's will has a purpose with 'Rosemary's Miscarriage', and you'll feel how lonely being the last person on Earth can be in 'Nightcaps'. These are just a few of the bizarre events lingering inside these pages. Reviews: "You guys!! I was not expecting how this little book was set up at all, and I loved it!! The introduction and interludes between each story are so much fun, and the way the stories are told is just the best thing ever! Most short story collections are just that, a collection. Bizarre Events is set up in such a way that despite it being 8 short stories, reading it is like reading one whole story. It flows so well, and given where the stories come from(not sure I can say in case it's a spoiler!), you get great visuals as you go between stories." - @m_a_rubio on IG "This collection of short stories was indeed bizarre. I just can't think of a better way to describe the stories. From "Static", which made me feel like I was reading an episode of Netflix's Black Mirror, to Itches, which will haunt me forever, the stories were a variety between creepy, peculiar, and just downright twisted. I enjoyed all of the stories, and I enjoyed the way they were all tied together. I always enjoy a short story collection that has an overlying story explaining why each story is being told. I think it adds an extra dimension to the whole experience." - @Courtney_three_tears on IG "All the stars!!" - @ghoulishspirit
