Things We Say in the Dark

Product Information

This collection of short tales can definitely be classified as belonging in the horror genre, and yet they are unlike anything I have ever read there. No ghostly apparitions appear and no monsters lurk in the shadows, but uneasiness creeps steadily throughout each tale and it seeps out from inside of reader and characters alike, where the true fears reside. It was a look of yearning; of a fierce need to possess and protect. Her breath shuddered when his hand squeezed between her thighs, parting her legs as he rubbed over where her skin was warm and honeyed all over. “Anything else?” he asked, moving his mouth down to her breasts. He nibbled along the bottom curve, lightly grazing supple skin with his teeth. The stories in Things We Say in the Dark are described as ‘feminist’, and largely stories told by women, telling of things that scare women. In Logan’s world, these things don’t have to be as big as ghosts, seances or bogey-men, although sometimes they are. Kirsty Logan hat mich mit diesem Buch in die Dunkelheit geführt. Meine Hand in ihrer hat sie Bilder in die Finsternis gemalt, von Frauen, die Früchte gebären, bewohnbaren Pilzhäusern und gläserne Bibliotheken ohne Bücher. Manche Geschichten sind magisch (oder metaphorisch?), andere so real, dass es wehtut. Sie sprechen das aus, was gern ungesagt bleibt, z.B. wie unheimlich es ist, ein Kind in sich heranwachsen zu fühlen oder dass manche Eltern besagtes Kind nach einer Weile auch gern wieder für eine Verschnaufpause abgeben würden. Unaussprechbare Bedürfnisse werden realisiert und düstere Geheimnisse angedeutet. Widerspenstige Kontraste spielen eine große Rolle: zu viel oder zu wenig geliebt werden, Angst davor gesehen oder übersehen zu werden.

Then, she felt it. The white heat of him. He pumped her full of his cum as he plunged into her in slow, tapering thrusts. Corrin squeezed her muscles around him, bouncing faster until she too coaxed out a climax for herself and cried out from the numbing euphoria of it all. She screamed so loud, yelling his name ecstatically to the high heavens. She no longer cared if anyone heard them. She was going to be his wife — his queen. He belonged to her, and she to him. Everyone should know it. Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.Corrins saw these doubts in his riddled expression. She felt it every night, when he took her in his arms and held her so close, she no longer knew where she ended and where he began. His body, like a massive shadow over her, would press densely against hers, slowly sinking until they melted into each other. hello here I am again clogging the Corriander tag and with unoriginal smut no less. I apologize for my brainrot and hope it pleases. Thank you! A sultry sigh filtered through Corrin’s lips once she felt his fingers comb through the roots of her hair, toeing the tenuous line between massaging and possessively gripping the tresses over her head.
