Review: His Hideous Heart

Title: His Hideous Heart Anthology 
Author: Dahlia Adler edt.
Narrator:
Audio Length: 14hr 13min
Rating: 3/5
Synopsis (Found on Goodreads):


Thirteen of YA’s most celebrated names reimagine Edgar Allan Poe’s most
surprising, unsettling, and popular tales for a new generation.


Edgar Allan Poe may be a hundred and fifty years beyond this world, but the themes
of his beloved works have much in common with modern young adult fiction


Thoughts:
Edgar Allen poe's stories are retold and twisted by YA Authors. What is
really awesome is that the original tales are included at least in the audiobook.
Out of the thirteen stories I truly enjoyed five of them. I did however find two
new authors I`d like to read their other novels.


My favorite retelling was “The Fall of the Bank of Usher: by Fran Wilde


TTFN,

Ashley
