The Measure of Sorrow: Stories by J. Ashley-Smith

4.0

A collection of short horror stories and I'd call the titular story more of a novella. This is an excellent book filled with creepy and odd stories. They take place in Australia giving them an other-worldly feel to this North American reader. The writing is beautifully crafted pulling us deeper into these dark stories. Some were quite disturbing. Most of the stories were full on five starts with a couple holding at four stars. It's not often short stories with a collection are all so excellent. Recommended.
