Another horror drabble collection - I'm on a roll with these and fully intend to read the other two in this series. I did not enjoy all these stories as much as I did the first collection, but there were definitely some standouts, which I'll of course list: One Shared Moment by Christopher Motz, Haunted by Amy Cross, The Weatherman by P. Mattern, Beachcombing by Mark Cassell, She Fought Back by James Newman (this one, OMG 😭), A Ghost in the Corner by Mark Lukens, The Highwayman by Billy Chizmar, Basement Monster by Justin M. Woodward, Last Thoughts by Shaun Hutson, and Cats Gathering by Rhys Hughes.
The gems really are gems though. It just makes me want to read more by these authors!

There are a few good drabbles in here but some of them feel repetitive. Not as strong overall as the first collection.

There were several good drabbles in this collection but I didn't feel it was quite as good as the first. It could be because the e-book I purchased had a lot of missing punctuation that was distracting. I still love the concept of drabbles and would recommend it.

Did you know that a drabble is a short form of fiction that is exactly 100 words long?
I learned this when Mr. Kennedy asked me to read 100 Word Horrors: An Anthology of Horror Drabbles in 2018. After reading the first few tales in that collection, I was in love!
When the author sent over the second edition, I was ecstatic! This second collection of drabbles had a bit of everything and I had so much fun reading it.
Full disclosure: I was given a free copy of this book by the author in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my rating in any way.
My favorite stories from this collection were definitely the ones that either spooked me or took a turn at the very end that I wasn’t expecting at all! It was so fun to see stories start out as cute and romantic, but then suddenly get extremely dark.
Of course, with any type of collection, it’s normal for me to love some and dislike some. So there were a few drabbles that I didn’t care for. These were usually the ones that just didn’t give me enough information to understand what was happening. There were also a few in this collection that I didn’t like because of the content matter.
Feel free to read on to see my quick thoughts after I read each story.
Aye Eye by Terry M. West – 5/5
…and here we go! A lovely Drabble to kick us off. Begins as a bit of a love story then goes dark. Perfection.

Oh my gosh!! This one was terrifying.

My Final Thoughts:
In the Afterward, Kevin J. Kennedy stated; “So, you have reached the end of our second Drabble book. I hope it was a fun ride.”
It sure was! I loved this collection so much!!
I highly recommend checking this one out if you’re a fan of horror, paranormal, humor, and/or sci-fi, and don’t mind a little darkness.
I learned this when Mr. Kennedy asked me to read 100 Word Horrors: An Anthology of Horror Drabbles in 2018. After reading the first few tales in that collection, I was in love!
When the author sent over the second edition, I was ecstatic! This second collection of drabbles had a bit of everything and I had so much fun reading it.

Entertaining for its price, but a lot of the drabbles didn't really make much sense to me.
There's still a number of worthy entries to be found that range from horror, to the grotesque, to plain silly fun.
