MY REVIEW
Leash and Other Short Horror Stories is a collection of short horror stories that all seem to be intertwined. There's a man named Mr. Arnold who gets mentioned in the story It Came with the Storm, and he pops up throughout various stories. He ties them all together. I thought that was a nice touch with this collection.
It Came with the Storm made me think of The Mist by Stephen King, but also had a Lovecraftian feel. I think this story was probably my favorite. 
The story Room 1317 gave me a Vacancy vibe (that's a movie with Luke Wilson and Jessica Biel). I liked that one too. Definitely didn't expect it to go the way it did. 
There's a Ten Foot Man in my Basement Eating Children was weird, but also kind of amusing.
R.D. Balm is a fun little zombie story.
And Something is Not Right About Those Flowers was another story I liked. Never trust people, and never go with them to a cabin in the woods. 
I did notice some issues with editing/proofreading. The book could definitely use a set of fresh eyes to go over it and fix some of the errors. They were a little bit distracting while reading.
Overall, though, Leash is a mixed bag of stories, and fans of horror will find something within the pages that will thrill them.
3.5 stars from me.
