My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love a good creepy story! And this has a few short stories! This had me creeped out, on my toes, gave me goosebumps and legit creeped me out. Not sure why I chose to read this at midnight, while laying in the dark but 🤷🏽‍♀️ let’s just say it adds to the dramatic affect. The story about the attic creeped me out especially because my bedroom has the attic door in it, and the entire time I’m just imaging the door opening on its own. I love a good horror book and these stories did it for me! It scared me and that’s what I wanted. Real impressed! The writing, the descriptions…spectacular. I’ll be reading these again when it’s spooky season 👻

Kelly Covic is a new author to me but that didn’t stop me from digging in to Insomnia. I was very intrigued. A collection of original short stories that will have you looking in the shadows to see what lurks there. Where reality and horror blend into the unbelievable. Where twisted, spooky and creepy have new meanings. Where madness and mayhem reside. It will make you wonder if you need to pinch yourself to see if you are awake or not.
Reading Insomnia was like watching a movie where you put your hands over your eyes but you have to look between your fingers because you have to know what is going on. It’s like being scared to the point where you have to have your child turn on each and every light before you move. It’s like having your heart beat so palpable you think the neighbours can hear it.
But when all is said and done Kelly’s writing style and imagination will draw you in and have you intrigued. Each and every story is short but pack a punch.
If you like something that will make you jump and squirm then get on board the crazy train that is Insomnia.

This book completely took me by surprise with just how much I enjoyed it. I had read a few books “like” this lately, finding the shorter stories great as time fillers. I picked up this book thinking that I would be the same – easy to pick up and easy to put down. This was a mistake. As soon as I started reading this book I could not put it down until I had read all of the stores inside – sleep be damned! I thought this was a unique and interesting collection and I loved it as soon as I started reading. It was so well written and absolutely captivating. This is a new author to me and, as her debut collection, a great way to show everyone what you are capable of. I cannot wait to see what she will produce next.

Be prepared to be fearful of bumps in the night. Covic has written a wonderful collection of spooky short stories which are captivating and leaves it up to you, the reader, to determine what really happened. Disliking stories that tie up all loose ends, I appreciated leaving something to the readers’ imagination.

I enjoyed the wide range of topics- from a magical trunk in an attic to a traditional haunted house, every story was refreshing. My favorite story was “The Attic,” because it keeps you guessing where the main character is going to end up. In all the stories, the dialogue and descriptions of the setting set the eerie tone for the reader. I look forward to reading more from this author.

I love this book full of short stories. Every one of them is fun and just creepy enough to allow you to use your imagination to the most. Great stories to read any day or anytime but extra creepy in the dead of night when no sound is being made.

For a debut author, I think this book is very good. It is a collection of spooky short stories. Some will give you chills while others will leave you wondering. My top three stories have to be Silent Sighs because I literally felt the main character’s panic and terror, The Attic because it was so original and the Music Box because it scared me senseless. I’m looking forward to seeing what else the author can come up with.

You might want to read this with the lights on. One of the best books of spooky short stories that I have read in while. My favorite is Silent Sighs. This one gave me some serious creeps. Each story gave me the early Stephen King horror chills. I found they had the just right psychological chill thrill. That is just what you are looking for in a good horror story. The flow had a good rhythm. Excellent book for horror fans.
