Review of 'More Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I really enjoyed this, not so much because of the stories themselves, but because I listened to an audiobook I found on YouTube:

The book is narrated by actor George S. Irving, and he is AWESOME. He really breathes life into the stories with his own inflections. My favourites were One Sunday Morning and the Brown Suit.

Some of the stories are very good, and I got into them instantly. Some I couldn't get into at all. Some of them are told in about three or four minutes, and some are over in thirty seconds.

Clearly for children (obviously), I don't think I would've enjoyed it nearly as much had I read it. Hearing it read TO me? Priceless!
