Waiting on Wednesday 06/22/22
Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!

A Sliver of Darkness by C.J. Tudor (November 8, 2022 by Ballantine Books)
You know how I am with short story collections, but this is one I’ll make an exception for because I love C.J. Tudor and her horror/thrillers!
“The debut short story collection from the acclaimed author of The Chalk Man, featuring ten bone-chilling and mind-bending tales
Timeslips. Doomsday scenarios. Killer butterflies. C. J. Tudor’s novels are widely acclaimed for their dark, twisty suspense plots, but with A Sliver of Darkness, she pulls us even further into her dizzying imagination.
In Final Course, the world has descended into darkness, but a group of old friends make time for one last dinner party. In Runaway Blues, thwarted love, revenge, and something very nasty stowed in a hat box converge. In Gloria, a strange girl at a service station endears herself to a cold-hearted killer, but can a leopard really change its spots? And in I’m Not Ted, a case of mistaken identity has unforeseen, fatal consequences.
Riveting and explosively original, A Sliver of Darkness is C. J. Tudor at her most wicked and uninhibited.”

I’ve yet to read anything by C.J. Tudor but I do really enjoy a good short story collection every once in a while. I’ll often read 2 or 3 stories between novels to break everything up a bit, but that does mean it often takes me a while to get throught the collections.

I did take a good long look at this because I do like this author very much but still – short stories and me, they never quite work. Hope you love it though.
