Hungry Business: A Gothic Story about the Horrors of Dating by Maria DeBlassie – Review by Shelly Kittell

Hungry Business by Maria DeBlassie
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I found this short story to be a very interesting take on dating. It almost feels like you are the one going out on dates with the hungry undead. I do have to agree with her. I have been out on some dates that have felt like that. My favorite part of the story were the descriptions of the times watching the tabby cat and the apartment across the street. Yay, for seeing the living guy. There’s always 1 good guy out there. You just have to keep looking. I would love to see more develop from that angle. Maybe a book? I couldn’t really understand why she felt the chill or how she got the ick in her pinky? This author does have a way of leaving you with chills with her writing. The description of the date at her doorstep decaying and her chopping part of her little finger off gave me a case of the “ews.” Overall, a story to really give you the goosebumps. It will definitely make you rethink that perspective on dating. Hmmmm…. Go ahead, you know you want to read. I enjoyed it and you will too.
