Tales from the Gas Station Vol.1

I’ve had Kindle Unlimited for a while now but mainly use it for the savings it gives me on my monthly magazines, this is the first book I’ve had using the offer.

“Working at a dead-end retail job in the middle of nowhere can be hard. The long hours. The helpless customers. The enormous eldritch horror living deep below the building…”

One of my colleagues is a huge horror fan and had just got in all of these and I was hooked from her description and just had to give them a try and was really pleased to find it on Kindle Unlimited which meant I could read all or as little of it as I enjoyed.

Well to say I enjoyed this a lot would be an understatement and also a bit too straighforward. This book is weird, not a dodgy Tory kind of weird, but a where the hell is this going kind of weird?

Jack works as the only full-time cashier at a gas station on the outskirts of a town that makes Eerie Indiana look like Walton’s Mountain.

Oh and Jack is incapable of sleeping and is on a countdown to his death, but at least all this weird stuff that is happening should keep him entertained if he wasn’t so insistent in filing it all away in his head as ‘a forget and don’t ask any questions kind of thing’.

There is so much going on here that at times you find yourself wondering if it will ever all connect up…

Well worth a read, keeps you hooked throughout, and funny and weird is always a winner for me. I’ve already got Volume 2 lined up to read soon. I’ve also gone down this rabbit hole of creepypasta books! I may not be able to return…
