I liked this one well enough. I like that it centered around someone the kids saw at school. Even if, at this point, any new people in Sleepyside pretty much have to be involved in whatever crime has been committed, I still like it best when the books are set there. I was happy for Bobby getting to ride like the big kids. #bobwhitebuddies

I pulled this off my shelf tonight to plan my #whattheDickens reading & discovered a bookmark from Hay on Wye—where I purchased this copy.😍 It was helpfully tucked in between Curiosity Shop and Child‘s History, so I only had to flip back a few pages to determine how many chapters are in Curiosity Shop. However, the last chapter is helpfully titled “Chapter the Last,” meaning I had to flip back a few more pages to find an actual numbered chapter🤪

LeahBergen What a pretty edition! 1h

Texreader Ok lots to say about this post! Gorgeous book! And you went to the town of bookstores??? I so want to go there someday! I love you found that bookmark in it. And finally I simply adore how Dickens names his chapters! 1h
BarbaraJean @LeahBergen So pretty! But the print is t i n y. 🧐 @Texreader Yes! The town of books is glorious!! Highly recommended! I‘ve been so privileged as to go there multiple times 😍 I have good friends in Wales, not too far of a drive from there. 56m

November‘s #LiteraryCrew selection is a tad different than previous reads, so it adds a change of pace to our #BuddyRead . Discussion on November 30th.

Read at your own pace. I‘ll post periodic check-ins throughout the month (unless the month really slips by me). All are welcome to join us! Please let me know if you wish to be added/removed from the tag list.

⭐️⭐️⭐️.25

vivastory One of my favorite SK books 3h
vivastory BTW: Love the IT Funko. My brother gave me a Stoker Funko for my b-day. I love it 3h
britt_brooke @vivastory Sadly, one of my least faves of his so far. I just can‘t get into vampires. I have a few King Funkos. They are so fun! I have Georgie, too; and Carrie; and Gage and Church. (edited) 3h
vivastory Carrie was the King book that made me want to read a lot more of his works & it sounds like you have a great King Funko collection. Pet Sematary is def one I appreciate a lot more the older I get & the more loss I have experienced, def due for a reread I think 3h
britt_brooke @vivastory Carrie was my first horror from him! Before that, I‘d read 11/22/63 and On Writing. I loved Carrie so much. It made me realize I could handle well-written creative horror. 🖤 3h

This collection is a pick, even though I averaged only 3/5 among all the stories. It‘s a great introduction to Poe which concludes in his more famous work. The narration is solid and clear. Definitely a Poe fan after reading this collection.

A vain man who refuses to wear his glasses. His name says it all. Because of his vanity, he ends up marrying his great-great-grandmother. Couldn‘t stop laughing at him.
