Book Review “Origins of Delusion”

By N.M Brown

Origins of Delusions absolutely has an attention grabbing set of bright red eyes. Definitely sets up the reader for a book filled with darkness.

First Thoughts

When I was offered an advanced copy of this book, I thought this is going to be great. I’d read stories by this author before and I was not disappointed with these. I enjoy dark speculative fiction, paranormal/horror stories. My parents would have said I loved to be too scared to fall asleep. If a story can make me pull my blankets up so the boogey man can’t get me, those are the stories I love.

I loaded my copy of “Origins of Delusion” within a few hours of receiving it and started with the first story.

Top 3 Top Picks in No Particular Order

Title : “You Have New Messages”, This story is on my list because I felt like I could connect with these characters. There came a point where I knew something was going on, but didn't quite want to believe it. The author certainly kept up the suspense until the very end.

Title: “Death and Other Infidelities” I can’t put my finger on why, but this one has to be on the list for certain, you’ll know once you read it. Gotta love vindictive women.

Title “Have You Made Your Contribution” the world the characters live in sounds like a horrible place to live, but I loved the way the author weaves this story and closes it off with my favorite kind of ending.

Honorable Mentions

Title” The Sign Of A Good Mother”

Title: “Unwanted Visions of the Future” I will never look at an old tv the same again.

Overall: This book was filled with stories that I loved, and it was difficult for me to pull just those few out to discuss, but if you want to read more of them I definitely recommend this book. The diversity of all characters portrayed, I believe was done very well.

5/5 stars for this one and here is the link for purchase.
