Nice little story telling us to be careful for what we wish for. I never read it before but everybody knows the story. However, I liked Pet Sematary better though.

Watched Bakemonogatari year ago.. Now I finally read this. The book's clear and quite simple. I can't feel the horror though probably because I'm too sleepy to even focus lol.

I was highly disappointed in this short story. A lot of hype for it and it fell super flat.
