Prayers to Hear in the Dark

Description

Nine chairs.

Nine shadows.

Nine mysterious drinks.

One house.

One by one, they drink. One by one, they recall.

Perhaps they don't wish to remember; perhaps they would rather forget.

Yet once the door closes, there is no way out.

There is just a way in.

    This is super well written and I'm loving the stories so far, the music recommendations are also 10/10. The concept of the drinks and the shadows is really interesting and got me really exited to see what comes next.
    The dark themes are really well done, and to me they really reflect human nature (with some fun twists), plus the bar concept really tied everything together for me which in the end adds some mystery and anticipation for each chapter and story untold. The prose also creates this rich immersion and makes you get involved with the characters and their emotions in each scene.
    So far, the author is doing a good job to present a finished and polished concept for each "drink" (a.k.a shadows), and the way they develop each story is intriguing and enticing. The twisted emotions of the characters are very well described and elaborated, and I could really get the 'horror vibes' as I read. My guess is that Death will be somehow present in each story, since this occurrence has been repeated twice. Only time will tell now.
    I'm excited to read this work until it's finally completed, and from what it appears, it will be a very short series.
