Spectral Evidence by Gemma Files is H.P. Lovecraft but with 100 percent less racism! It is like reading the better episodes of the show Supernatural but with women leads. It is good, scary fun.
Although maybe it isn't always...fun. It is also genuinely creepy.
Since I write these mainly as notes to myself I feel compelled to note that I have some sort of brain block with short stories. I read them way slower than I do other books I think it may be that I get invested and interested in a story or characters and then...BOOM....the story is over and the characters gone! Oh no! It then takes me some time to get into the next story. I suppose if I thought about it I would find I start books slow then read faster.
Spectral Evidence slowed me down but it was worth it. Files is a unique, engaging voice that I am extremely glad I discovered (with help for the Miami Herald Book Page on Facebook...yes, there is something useful on social media).
