Author Introduction
J D Armstrong started writing at an age of 20 with a short story. He never liked reading his own stories, instead he gave it to others to read. Armstrong had a rebellion and difficult childhood as he lost his mother at an early age of 7. Sharing his life with a stepmom was hard. He continued writing short horror thriller stories and was given certificates of merit. After a severe accident , Armstrong found inspiration for writing these stories and printing them out.

My Opinion
Do You Dare by J D Armstrong is an exciting and enjoyable read. I cannot say that the stories were very much full of horror but they have the thrill. All the stories are supernatural and the author has done a commendable job. It is one of those books which can be read within a fortnight. Perfect for a beginner of horror books. My favorite is The Sandman which has magic and emotions so beautifully woven in words.
I would like to give the book 4 stars. Thanks to @Booktasters for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book.
