My Thoughts on Merry Fuckin’ Christmas and Other Yuletide Shit by Kevin J. Kennedy
Per usual with these types of collections, here are my rating breakdowns for each story along with some immediate thoughts/reactions.
I was so excited to see some familiar tales in here. It was great returning to them again!
Christmas in Hell –
I love this tale so much. It hits on all the grumpy feelings I have from time to time about the holidays and how out of control things have gotten. I love the path this story takes and that ending!!
Sisterly Love –
Yikes!!! The matching outfits… Sheesh.
Merry Fuckin’ Christmas –
This story gets me every time I read it!! I love that when it begins, you think all is well. Soon you realize something is wrong, but you’ll never guess what is about to happen next. What a heartbreaking story with a killer ending!
Christmas on the Streets –
Yikes! What a spooky one! You better watch out…
One Shift Too Many –
Brutal!!
The Christmas Surprise –
As this one had a sexual theme, it wasn’t my favorite since that’s just not my jam. But oh my gosh, this one had me giggling at first. Of course this woman’s curiosity got the better of her! Beware mysterious gifts!!
Down the Bizarro Watering Hole –
I love this one so much! While this tale was certainly a bit bizarre, it also has plenty of horror in a very real world sense, then concludes with a heartwarming bit. What a great way to end the collection!
My Final Thoughts on Merry Fuckin’ Christmas and Other Yuletide Shit
