I devoured this short in Aydible form and loved how the voice was a true performer with a wide range and a skilled way of making the characters come alive. This is a story about children, and I'm obviously not a child, but it did take me back to the days of trick or treating. A quick listen, but still fun

This was a pretty good short story. I listened to it on audiobook while on a bike ride. I didn't really like the way the bully and his internal thoughts were presented, but it didn't detract from the tale overall. The ending was a bit confusing for me, I thought there could have been more in the way of explanation. Specifically Jack and his desire to have his turn... trying for no spoilers. Still liked it.

Easy Pickings by Jason Parent is a fun and quick listen. It's just under a hour. The story is about 2 bullies that find out there is even bigger monsters than them out on Halloween. This is just the thing to get you in the Halloween spirit. It's read by Commodore James. He does a great job bringing this story to life.

I requested this audio book in exchange for a honest review.

good ol Halloween fun!

I love Halloween. My cousins and I have Facebook wars over Christmas decor taking over Halloween decor etc. I was very happy to come across this gem. This is one of the stories in. A Halloween anthology that has now been added to my wishlist as I want to hear the others as well. This one centers around a bully who spends Halloween night looking for Easy Pickings to steal candy from and how he gets his just desserts. Highly recommend. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

Great Halloween story

This is a fun Halloween story about a bully and his underling taking Halloween candy from other kids, told in a comedic way. Thank's to the author or narrator for providing me this free audiobook, and this is my voluntary review...Commodore James was the narrator and he did a nice job.
