3.5 stars. Sometimes good sometimes boring. I liked the parts with Rudyard the mad scientist the best. Not my favorite of his books. A lot of graphic body horror.

Camille says, "You might wonder why I've asked you all here today."
I don't wonder, though; I know it's because we're readers, and she knows that if she sits here long enough, one of us (probably me) will join her with a book (possibly the tagged book), and then her plan will be complete.
Nope just nope. Second time I gave this author a chance and was disappointed again. Couldn't finish it. Stories made no sense at all.

Enjoy!
The Haddesleys are an old family that has a compact with the bog they live on: they take care of the land and the bog will provide the eldest male nd heir with a wife. But now the family home is in disrepair and the heir, well, he isn't so into the bog.
I felt a general sense of unease and uncomfortableness while reading and I mean that in the best way. Plus bog. We know how I feel about bogs.
Last month, I joined The Constant Reader book club for the first time. It‘s a monthly meetup at a local library where they only read Stephen King‘s books. November‘s meet-up is to discuss Night Shift. As a testament to King‘s skillful storytelling, many of the stories left me wanting more - in a good way! The story ends, and there could be more told, but King intentionally leaves the reader hanging.

I‘ve read a few books by Darcy Coates, and I absolutely love her spooky mansion and ghost stories. Craven Manor was different from her other books I‘ve read. It had a strong emotional theme that made me care about the characters and what happened to them. 👻

I have yet to read a Blake Crouch novel that I don't like. Like his other novels, Run is well written and shows great insight into the human condition and human behavior. I described Run to my husband as "Kind of like The Walking Dead, but without the dead." Run focuses on what a family has to do to survive when (living) humans are the thing to be feared.
