Graveyard Shift

A brief dive into mycology and the questionable ethics scientific experimentation invites. It was all right, but too short to get attached to anyone, and too high level to satisfy my itch for creepy sci-fi.

I liked the setting. There was a pointless amount of characters for how short the book was. It could have been three people and wrapped up in fifty pages. Might read more by the author but this one wasn't worth it.

The premise and the investigation part of this novella were interesting but I couldn't care less for any of the protagonists.

I felt that having so many povs and jumping between them didn't really work for a book this size. At least for me.

The ending was cool, though.

Graveyard Shift starts as a creepy atmospheric mystery, but it quickly devolves into a Scooby-Doo episode, except in this gang everyone is sleep deprived and a chain smoker.

This novella explores the dark side of academia through the lives of five insomniacs living in a college town. A short and easy to read story that starts strong but, by the end, seems rushed and incomplete.
