A girl comes of age with a vengeance - and help from a friend - in a tale of unnerving suspense from National Book Award winner and literary master Joyce Carol Oates.
Bad things have been happening since Mia began to mature. Her dad left. Boys at school can’t keep their hands to themselves. A lecherous stepfather has moved in. Her only refuge is an abandoned lot on her suburban cul-de-sac, crawling with feral felines - one of which follows Mia home. Ghostly white and affectionate, she is Mia’s new companion and - as Mia’s tormenters will soon discover - her fierce protector.
Joyce Carol Oates’s Miao Dao is part of Dark Corners, a collection of seven heart-stopping short stories by bestselling authors who give you so many new reasons to be afraid. Each story can be read in a single sitting. Or, if you have the nerve, you can listen all by yourself in the dark.

the narrator sounded automated but not in a good way, and mispronounced “feral” the whole book. if you’re going to read this book, i suggest doing so on kindle or physical as i’m sure it would be much more enjoyable that way. the only reason why i stuck with the audio was because i was working so i couldn’t sit and read the physical book.
overall though, the story was great and had good depth for it being 80 pages or so. following a 13 year old girl through the stresses of puberty, school, and a new step dad, she befriends a feral cat who quickly becomes her protector from the things that hide in the dark.
4/5 stars
