Harvest Time — By Sue Rovens January 27, 2016 Fiction , Short Stories Published by Unscooped Bagel   Harvest Time A pair of glistening eyes watched as my friend and I walked down Jackson Street. W e never suspected. Ten year old girls were too enmeshed in the traditions of trick or treating; devising ways to gather the most treats in the least amount of time. Earlier in the evening, the sidewalks bustled with ghosts and witches and the occasional unidentifiable masked creature, but as curfew neared, the neighborhood’s population seemed to disappear. Drapes closed and porch lights dimmed. Occasional bursts of wind

By ALY on January 6, 2016 Format: Paperback     What an interesting book! First I have to say, I hate needles so the cover of this book creeps me out! :) But the book even though it was a very dark book for me was great. I was interested in what was going to happen next.

Though he has his own demons to battle, the future of Badfish rests in his sticky hands
