Samantha Hunt

At first reading these three stories in Samantha Hunt's, "Dark Dark", I was so utterly confused. I was trying to find a way to connect the chapters from either one character, or even a scenario. Then when I read the back that they’re all short stories I was like, wow duh.  My favorite one is “The Beast”, I love that in the end her husband ended up turning into a deer too and it was just a fun read. The other ones seemed a little perplexing to me. In “The Story of” I was thrown off when it went from first the sisters point of view and then switched to Ted’s girlfriend. The whole thing didn’t really add up to me and I feel like being confused I missed the whole point. In “All Hands” the same problem happened when we went from the ship and the secretary’s boy-toy and then back to the 13 pregnant girls. I think I need to re-read all of them and try to wipe clean that they’re all individual short stories to get a better understanding.
