"Shadows and Mirrors by Rena Aliston is a juxtaposition of life and death, love and pain, hurt and healing. This captivating collection explores the human condition through poetry."

"Aliston is superb at story-telling when it comes to creating vivid, macabre imagery in short form, even the shortest story, pulls you in and leaves you a little shaken at the end."

"Unspeakable Truths, Volume 1 sings through brilliant poetic voice and verse. The journey to damnation continues with creative flash fiction tales that left me wanting to read more. Simply awesome."

"Enchanting, thrilling and yet oddly comfortable. The perfect collection!! If you’re someone that has a thirst for short stories and mini-stories with horror – this is the set of stories for you! "

"This group of short stories is deliciously horrifying. Even the ones that are merely a page long will make your jaw drop. Make you want more. I’m not usually into short stories but she did an amazing job in her writing and I definitely will be reading more. I most definitely recommend checking this creepy book out! "
