Amanda's Review: Little Creeping Things by Chelsea Ichaso

Little Creeping Things



































Little Creeping Things 
by Chelsea Ichaso

          


 
                                                 My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this debut by Chelsea Ichaso. It had plenty of twists and kept me guessing.

A girl goes missing and the main character, Cassidy, thinks she might know who is to blame. I thought almost every character was at fault at some point by the time we got to who was actually at fault.

The only issue I had with the book was that the main character was quite annoying at times. I understand that she has trauma and has a kind of victim personality, but it got irritating early in the book to hear her constantly whining about how horrible everything is for her, how everyone hates her, how she can't have what she wants, and her cowardly way of handling everything. I wanted to reach into the audiobook and shake her.

Altogether, I think this is a good story and would recommend it to anyone that likes a teen murder mystery with plenty of twists and turns.

Amy McFadden did a good job narrating this audiobook. She emotes well and makes the characters' emotions realistic and fitting with the story. It was easy to discern which character was speaking and what they were feeling. I enjoyed her narration and will be listening to her again when I get the opportunity.

Mother’s Tale and Other Stories by Khanh Ha- Review

Mother’s Tale and Other Stories by Khanh Ha

 

A Mother’s Tale and Other Stories by Khanh Ha Publisher: C&R Press (October 15, 2021) Category: Linked Short Stories, Literary Fiction, Historical Fiction Tour dates: October 11-November 24, 2021 ISBN: 978-1949540239 Available in Print and ebook, 150 pages

 A Mother’s Tale and Other Stories

Description Mother’s Tale and Other Stories by Khanh Ha

A Mother’s Tale is a tale of salvaging one’s soul from received and inherited war-related trauma. Within the titular beautiful story of a mother’s love for her son is the cruelty and senselessness of the Vietnam War, the poignant human connection, and a haunting narrative whose set ting and atmosphere appear at times otherworldly through their land scape and inhabitants.

Captured in the vivid descriptions of Vietnam’s country and culture are a host of characters, tortured and maimed and generous and still empathetic despite many obstacles, including a culture wrecked by losses. Somewhere in this chaos readers will find a tender link between the present-day survivors and those already gone. Rich and yet buoyant with a vision-like quality, this collection shares a common theme of love and loneliness, longing and compassion, where beauty is discovered in the moments of brutality, and agony is felt in ecstasy.
