Word Processor of the Gods: This story stars Richard Hagstrom, he has a wife and a son. Richard also has a nephew and a brother. Richard's brother is named Roger, Roger's wife is named Belinda, and Roger's son is named Jonathan. Mr. Nordhoff (who used to live next to Roger) helped Richard bring in a word processor that Jonathan had made for Richard's birthday. Johnathan (in the book's words) was "damn near an electrical genius," and "was a fine boy." However, one day Roger was drinking and driving and crashed the car with himself, Belinda, and Jonathan inside. Now Jonathan built a word processor from scratch for Richard's birthday, because Richard was a teacher who wrote short stories and said that owning a word processor would make writing those short stories much easier. Richard had found that when you typed in a sentence, it became reality. So Richard replaced his wife with Belinda and replaced his son with Jonathan, before the word processor stalled and broke down.

Gramma: This story stars George. He has a brother named Buddy, George's mother, and George's grandmother. Buddy had broke his leg so George had to stay home while his mother went to the hospital and checked on Buddy. This left George home with Gramma. Gramma was blind so Gramma needed helped eating, using the bathroom, and such. When George was younger, his Gramma asked him for a hug but George was scared to and cried. So George was left alone and was almost begging for Gramma not to wake up. George then recalled when he was younger how George's mother, aunts, and uncles would talk about Gramma's spells and books. Which led George to the conclusion that Gramma was a witch. But then Gramma stopped breathing. He used at least 3 different ways to tell if Gramma was alive or not but every time he got the same result and concluded that she was dead. But Gramma came back to life and embraced George with a hug. Gramma died and never awoke this time, however George started to speak an unknown language in his sleep and was really looking forward to being bullied by Buddy again.

I really enjoyed this book. The stories really grabbed your attention and made you want to read till the end. And if you got tired of a story you could move onto the next. There are 21 stories in this book and each I enjoyed. I really wish some had a sequel, especially "The Mist." It has plenty of genres as well. Some are funny, scary, sad, dark, or a mixture of that. Some stories I read and just went "Wait, what?" Overall I like this book but I wish there were prequels or sequels. ( )
