After hearing so many great things about Cursed Bunny I was very excited to get approved for this ARC. Midnight Timetable tells the stories of different haunted objects and how they came to find their place at the researcher facility where our narrator works overnight security. Each room in the facility is a lab housing a different cursed or haunted object with its own unique backstory, however many of the story connect in someway. I loved the premise of the book and thought this was such a fun idea and way to tell a multitude of stories, however the stories themselves fell flat. I love the sheep though.

"Midnight Timetable" is a captivating collection of ghost stories by acclaimed Korean author Bora Chung. This genre-defying anthology draws parallels to her previous work, "Cursed Bunny," presenting a rich tapestry of interconnected tales.

Chung skillfully merges elements of magical realism, fantasy, sci-fi, and horror, reminiscent of "Black Mirror." The true horror lies in real-world atrocities, exploring themes like patriarchy, societal greed, and injustice.

Her haunting prose pulls readers into a familiar yet unsettling world, confronting contemporary issues and amplifying the horror through the interplay of the spectral and the real. I highly recommend "Midnight Timetable" for a thought-provoking and chilling read. A special thanks to Algonquin and NetGalley for the advanced reader copy (ARC).
