From Readers
“This darkly comedic exploration of grief from Michelle von Eschen was a definite page turner. Other readers have said it has a Black Mirror feel and I definitely see that. Would have fit nicely in Amazon’s Forward Collection with Blake Crouch and Paul Tremblay. Well written and worth the read!” – Duncan Ralston, Author of Woom, The Midwives, and the Ghostland Trilogy
“An exquisite mix of ghoulishness, philosophy, and humor. The prose was deft and poetic. The story itself was short but it hit hard. This was right up my alley.” – Danger Slater, Author of Moonfellows, I Will Rot Without You, and other works
“…this book overwhelmed me with its sharp beauty.” – Tessa, @booksasmeals on Instagram
“[WYBAB] delivers all of the quiet punches that I’ve come to expect from Michelle von Eschen. This novelette blends together grief, technology, irony, bureaucracy, and our society’s odd obsession with bundling discomfort into neat tidy boxes….The originality and emotions, along with von Eschen’s prose and pacing, provide another 5 star read from this author.” – @SarahsSpookyReads on Instagram
“Butcher gives us heartfelt, catharsis, and shows us dark humor while exposing vulnerability to our own morality.” – Christina Pfeiffer, Mothers of Mayhem Podcast and Christina’s Critiques on UncomfortablyDark[dot]com
“This was creative, horrifying, emotional and had some brilliantly timed humour…This is a truly an imaginative and impressive piece of writing that deserves more than five stars!” – Nat Whiston, Author of Death Walks With Me
