Mirror Mirror

Submitted by emotive.eleven on May 26, 2008 - 10:41.

I read a book called "Mirrror Mirror" with a lot of short (kinda creepy stories) in it. But it was by someone going under the pen name of Silverman. Do you think we're talking about the same book?

One of the stories was about this flower.... and there was two sisters that loved each other and the flower made them hate each other.... the flower was the franjibelle....

Do you know what I'm talking about or are these two different books?

I don't think I've ever heard of that book. It sounds good, though. I love short, creepy stories. The Mirror Mirror I mean is about the Borgia ruling family, and their various corruptions, and then there's this thread of mythology and Moorish legend in it. It's a REALLY good book. I've read it three times.

My little brother likes the Indian in the Cupboard too.

Except I actually think he's only seen the movie, so I'm not sure if that counts.
