Once again, I really found that all the stories, even those that were a miss for me, had some really dark events in them, which makes for a fun time.

Slice of Paradise: A Beach Vacation Horror Anthology - Goodreads

The second of two ‘Beach Vacation’ themed horror anthologies, ‘Slice of Paradise’ for me was head and shoulders better than its sibling ‘Beach Bodies.’ My goodness. We all know how terrifying it is when you brush up against something in the water, not knowing what it was. This takes that fear to an even more terrifying level! I loved seeing this fathers’ strength shine through when everything else was pulling him down. And that last line! What a great story to begin the collection! This tale will definitely get readers hearts pumping! What an emotional journey we go on with this poor man. Night Dive by Drew Starling: This story has a slower build, which only increases the sense of dread and allows some time to worry about the characters. This was genuinely scary. 4 stars.Du kan anmelde et overnatningssted som du har booket gennem vores platform, hvis du overnattede der eller hvis du ankom til overnatningsstedet, men ikke gennemførte dit ophold.

Slice of Paradise: A Beach Vacation Horror Anthology

Ah! All I will say about this one is that I freaking love flash fiction that draws you in and only lets you know what’s actually going on in the last line! This was perfect!

As an island girl from Maine, I may not have frequented tropical beaches, but I’ve sure got salt water in my blood.This collection was a hit for me! Let’s dive in! My Thoughts on Slice of Paradise: A Beach Vacation Horror Anthology edited by Ben Long and Andrew Robert Som standard bliver anmeldelser sorteret afhængigt af datoen og andre kriterier der skal vise dig de mest relevante anmeldelser, blandt andet: dit sprog, anmeldelser med tekst og anmeldelser der ikke er anonyme. Andre sorteringer kan være tilgængelige (f.eks. type rejsende, karakter, m.m.) I think the reason I found this more enjoyable was due to solid storytelling, better crafted stories and ultimately more variety in the ‘where’ of the story taking place. Beach vacations are meant for relaxing and unwinding away from the drudgery of normal life. The sparkling sun, shimmering on cresting waves. A light breeze as you sit with toes in the sand, a cold drink in one hand. Utopia on an island. But what happens when that paradise suddenly becomes a purgatory of pain?

All these two women want to do is enjoy their day of vacation by visiting a lemon orchard and then returning to the hotel for a “nap.” But some otherworldly beings have other plans for them. Hvis der er flere anmeldelser, vises de seneste først, med forbehold for et par andre faktorer (hvilket sprog anmeldelsen er skrevet på, om det kun er en karakter eller om den også indeholder kommentarer osv.). Hvis du ønsker det, kan du sortere og/eller filtrere dem (ud fra årstiden, anmeldelseskarakter osv.). The Guardian (Phillip Fracassi) --> Eva and Bryce are on holiday in Bora Bora, but take a detour to a secret beach, alongside two other couples, Karyn and Terry, & Mike and Stacy. The isolated beach is basically a paradise for the visitors. But what truly awaits them?... One that you start slowly and it builds up nicely with a surprise fairly early on. You wonder just what is happening on the beach and what is hidden there. The survivalist element to this makes for a great plot line! My only thing would be I wanted more from it at the end 4.5/5 Awards: Now, normally what I do here is summarize what I read. That's pretty self-evident in a themed horror anthology. So, I'm going to do something a little different. For this review, just for the fun of it, I'm giving Short Story Awards. And without further ado... The awards: Slice of Paradise is a collection of seventeen bite-sized tales themed around the beach. This is a perfect holiday read, as you can go through a couple of these by the shore (you probably won't want to go swimming afterwards).

Curse of the Cache (Alyson Hasson) --> Cara and Matt were meant to be on a boat tour around Nassau but things went very wrong. They wash up on a seemingly abandoned island and find a strange underground hidey hole. But what is down there?.... Another one where I like the concept. An abandoned historical hideaway beneath the sand really works. I like it! A very strong story that is fast paced and very enjoyable, taking you to an unexpected place. 4.5/5
