The Sun Down Motel | Simone St. James
post image
Pickpick

After answering the discussion questions for today‘s #BOTMBuddyread chat, I couldn‘t wait to finish this...

Fell, NY has secrets. And the Sun Down Motel outside of town seems to be the epicenter. Told in dual timelines, this ghost story is creepy and compelling, with a few twists and turns. I had some suspicions that were correct, but I didn‘t have everything figured out. There‘s mystery and suspense - so glad I read this during the day!

Librarybelle I realized I neglected to mention this is my #FreezerBook for #BBRC #GrowUp ...anything more intense and I may not ever sleep again! #TeamSqueamish @LibrarianRyan @StayCurious 5y
StayCurious I love when a book can surprise you. Sounds creepy! You must be reaching the end of BBRC😀 how close are you? 5y
Librarybelle @StayCurious I still have most of the teen category and a little bit out of middle grade, grow up, and the yeah baby category. Getting closer! How are you doing? 5y
StayCurious @Librarybelle not bad! Once I‘m done the picture books I‘ll move on to Easy readers. I‘m mostly done the other categories. June will be a mad rush to the finish! 5y
Librarybelle Haha, @StayCurious ...indeed! Great job! 5y

I really enjoyed this novel. The main character John is a sociopath he is also 15 & relates to serial killers so much that he thinks he may become one. Then someone is murdered in his town and he decides to go after the killer.

Even though I‘m #teamslaughter, I had my heart set on reading Dracula this October so I just listened to it this weekend during our epic road trip. Not terribly scary, but a more layered and developed story than I had anticipated! Really quite a good read and Simon Vance is always an amazing narrator. 5pts (I think) #scarathlon #bbrc #growup #freezerbook #readmyowndamnbooks

What a great collection of novellas! Mira Grant can sure spin a great zombie story. I love her scientific explanations of how zombies came about, and how the Rising (the Zombie Apocalypse) progressed.

My favorite novella in here was How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea. It‘s an in depth look at Australia‘s method of dealing with the undead. Zombie Kangaroos y‘all! What‘s not to love?!

This bookmark from @Rissreads was the perfect match!

Rissreads Zombie kangaroos, stacked! 5y
Soubhiville @LibrarianRyan I‘m using this for my #FreezerBook for #BBRC. I had a few nightmares from it! Still loved it though. 5y
LibrarianRyan @Soubhiville That is awesome!! 5y
overtheedge Mira Grant....zombie kangaroos.....I'm In!! 5y
Soubhiville @Rissreads and @overtheedge these novellas do have spoilers for the trilogy, so you might want to start with those... if they interest you. The Newsflesh Trilogy is: FEED, DEADLINE, and BLACKOUT. I‘m not yelling at you, the titles are all caps 😊 5y

This book is already scaring the 💩out of me. I have never watched the movie 🎥 . Now I am not sure if I can handle it. #bigchicken #freezerbook #stephenking

DaveGreen7777 The book is actually much scarier than the movie! 😱 I liked the movie, but most of it‘s strength comes from the acting performances, while the book has a lot more layers to it (and they‘re all pretty chilling)! 6y

That's another one down! I love reading this book because it is so different from the movie. I watched The Shining a lot when I was growing up, so that's what I picture. The book took me back to King's original vision and it was just as chilling. I think both works are magnificent for their type of medium. #epicstephenkingreread #1977 #book5

This is a "freezer" book!! It is one of the scariest books I've ever read. It even gave me dreams last night, that I woke up from, with my heart pounding. I'm having to read a calmer book in-between chapters of this one. I can't wait to see what happens next though. #freezerbook #friendsreference #scarybook #thetaking

KellyKate That's all I need to know- getting ASAP! 8y
