pickNobody does psychology better than King who keeps you on the edge of your seat as you wander with a missing little girl in a forest. She finds a way to believe she‘ll survive, battling her own psyche in the process. In a new twist, King works to charm the reader with this sweet little girl who loves baseball.
pickGood story, ending sucked.

pick(2015, selections 1995-2014)
It's a collection of 25 horror short stories. They range from a sweet sad story about a man who befriends a ghost in his back yard (“She Found Spring“), to bizarre *WTF did I just read?!* stories (like “Grandma Wanda's Belly Jelly“), with a generous helping of erotic and body horror in between. Some stories lean too hard into sexual violence for my taste, but by and large they're well crafted, efficient and effective
pickThis is one of the most disturbing books I have ever read. Cora Zeng begins the book with no agency but by the end is a somewhat unwitting heroine. I don‘t want to describe anything more about the plot because it defies description. I don‘t know if any of the things in this book actually happened, but I‘m sure there must have been equally gruesome crimes against humanity and particularly Asian women. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Just a reminder that December‘s #LosersClub read is #Christine Put your library holds in now, search your shelves, or buy a new copy, and check back on or about Dec 1st when we begin reading this one. Discussion will be at the end of the month! #StephenKing #StephenKingInOrder #KingFromTheBeginning #ConstantReader #ReadAlong #BuddyRead #BookDiscussion
so-soIt was an okay book, very easy read which was great after reading all the Harry Potter books!
Truthfully I preferred the film over this book, but it was good.

Here‘s another one I checked out from the library so I would remember to add it to the wishlist! 😅
It has a map! 🎡🎢🎠🫣
so-soRead this one all today in a sitting. Really really loved 95% of this book. It had descriptive writing that made the horror scenes so tense. The dread was building, the pacing was good, the horror was creeping and then…
The biggest conflict was not resolved.
Now I don‘t mind when books have an open ending, but this novel‘s ending didn‘t even give us that curtesy.
This went from a 4.5 to a final score of ⭐️⭐️
