I reviewed the audiobook version of this book. There are twenty stories from mostly well-known authors - Stephen King, Sue Grafton, Joyce Carol Oates, Sara Paretsky, James Lee Burke and more. One of the great things about a short story anthology is that you can get some idea about an author's work with a shorter time investment. This audiobook uses several narrators which helps. One disadvantage is that this genre of short story often tends to follow a certain formula. There's a crime - and often some surprising twist. After a bit the stories tend to run together. There is one story from the late 1800s. as a bonus story. It did not really fit. Fans of this type of short story should enjoy this book. A good way to try out some authors. #thebestmysterystoriesoftheyear #mysteriousbookshop #leechild #ottopenzler #mystery #shortstories #mysteryshortstories #audiobook #bookstagram #bookshelves #booknerd #bookhoarder #bookworm #sodacityreads #bookish #bookreview #hardcover #bookcover #bookhaul #literarycrimefiction #goodreads #homelibrary #fiction #domesticthriller #crimefiction #thriller #sherlockholmes https://www.instagram.com/p/CUcdaTyLBip/?utm_medium=tumblr
