Holidays Are Hell

I suggest this book if you are a fan of an author included in the anthology. If you aren't a fan, the drop in world building can make you stumble, but you might find new authors to read. I read this for Kim Harrison's Two Ghosts for Sister Rachel. It felt like coming home to friends I've missed since The Hollows ended. I don't think I'm ever going to find a series that has effected me as much as The Hollows. I also enjoyed The Harvest by Vicki Petersson, which made me interested in her Zodiac series, but the other two stories were a bit too sexy for me. I don't like random instant love/attraction relationships in my books.

I really enjoyed three of these stories. I'm venturing out into new territory as I am learning to love Fantasy. I've only read mysteries and contemporary books before. I have found I love Kim Harrison. Her story, Two Ghosts for Sister Rachel, was a fun read. I also enjoyed the story about Six by Marjorie M. Liu. I wished there were more! I have ordered another book by Liu. The story by Vicki Pettersson was hard for me to wrap my head around at first but I was able to get into it and enjoyed it. I will look into her as well to see what else she has written. Sorry Lynsay Sands, I didn't like the corniness of Run, Run, Rudolph but I am sure other people will. You can't please everyone.

This was a fun little read.

It has been years since I've read anything in this world, but I kinda remember how things work, so I decided to start my re-read of the series with this novella. It is cute and fun. Seeing young Rachel and the ghost she fell in love with (lol) was exciting. You can't help but root for her to get overcome her weakness and the brother's concern.

I couldn't remember which option she would choose although I had a guess ^_^
Very fun! And if you haven't read anything in this world, the setting and some terminology might be a little confusing, but for the most part it should still all make sense. If you read a lot of fantasy, then more of it will make sense.

Can't wait to continue this series!!
