Kisses from Hell

I consider these kind of collections of short stories to be a nice way to introduce yourself to other others. But honestly, I think this collection is the most blah and bah book that I encountered so far in 2013. I would definitely not recommend other to read this, unless you would like to force yourself through a mess. The worst short story in this collection is definitely Above by Kristin Cast. Poem-like short story, there is no words for how horrible it is Edited (and added July, 2017): Sunshine by Richelle Mead: —/5 stars Bring Me to Life by Alyson Noel: —/5 stars Above by Kristin Cast: 1/5 stars Hunting Kat by Kelley Armstrong:—/5 stars Lilith by Francesca Lia Block: —/5 stars

Yes, 3 stars because I liked 3 of the stories. I have to admit I really only bought this because I wanted to read Richelle Meads short story of Lissa's parents (if you don't know who those characters are, Lissa is a character from the Vampire Academy series.) Richelle Mead's "Sunshine" Like I said I was interested in Lissa's parents story only because in the Vampire Academy Series the'yre dead (this isn't a spoiler it says in another book)(car accident) I had to admit I liked finding out about them. I'm thrilled to know she's making a spin off with some of the other characters from the book. :) Alyson Noel's "Bring me to life." It made me wonder what the hell was going on at the begining, but then you kinda start to understand what's happening at this school. I liked the characters too so that helped it out. Kelley Armstrong's "Hunting Kat" I liked the spin on vampires, and how they can be altered I guess you could say. It's hard to explain it. Just different and I like that. Three cheers! Kristin Cast's "Above" I'm sorry but I could not for the life of me figure out what the hell it was about. I mean I did at the end almost, but it took me abit. I actually stopped reading the book because I didn't feel like reading that story, but I eventually did finish because I thought it would make sense later. It didn't I was so f'in confused with who the characters were and what they were doing. I expected it to be better (I liked the HoN series) So my expectations were high. Yeah. Then there was "Lilith" by Francesca Lia Block. It wasn't that I hated this story really it was just weird for me. Maybe, I'm just stupid but I din't get the storyline or whatever. I like the name though. :)
