Why read it?
1 author picked The Repository of Lost Souls as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I read this tiny collection of stories after chatting to the author on social media, and it's what got me reading again after two years of barely reading a thing.
Nostalgic, atmospheric, and vivid, these stories are sometimes stomach-churningly brutal. Even though a lot of them deal with the supernatural, it's the most mundane of situations that are the most anxiety-inducing.

A very emotional collection with as much heart as heartbreak, wrapped up in chiming prose.
From Die's list on to warm your heart and freeze your soul.
