Summary

Winner of the 2018 ABR Listeners Choice Award for best in humor!

A collection of absurdist and thought-provoking stories from the author’s Return to the DirtJust Speculating, and more, including unreleased, exclusive, audio-only content! Performed by a cast of award-winning and Audie® nominated narrators. Fans of the macabre, dark humor, and cerebral
thrillers are guaranteed a good listen.

Occupational Hazards is an unflinching ride through the absurdity of it all. Existentialism, absurdism, and outlandish humor merge with ordinary, workaday life for a truly unique perspective of the human experience. Not recommended for the faint of heart or easily offended. But if meaty stories are what you’re after….

We hope you’re hungry.

My Review

4/5 Stars

A collection of weird and unique stories that are guaranteed to make you laugh. For as strange and outlandish as they were, I felt they were also stories that regular people could relate to, and that was probably the most interesting part of the book. The characters sometimes were obnoxious but it’s because of that that I felt as if it was real.

The narration was great, making this a smooth listen.

If you’re looking for a read to lift your spirits or give you a good laugh, this is the book for you.

Proud author responsible for Dead by Morning and The Council, fascinated by the dark and macabre. Stephen King is her all time inspiration mixed in with a little bit of Eminem and some faint remnants of the works of Edgar Allen Poe. When she began writing, she started in horror but it somehow drifted into thriller. She loves the 1988 movie Heathers. She was born and raised in Michigan but traveled across the country to where she currently resides in Texas.
