This one makes me thankful I have sons. It is creepy. Creepy AF! I started the Kindle version and finished it on audio. Listen to it! The audiobook brings out the real psychopath in Hanna. #creepyaf #damienstepaside #googleimage

This audiobook is sitting on my OverDrive ‘shelf‘. On a scale from 1 to F that ish, how creepy is this book? #imnotscared #imcautious #googleimage #notmycat

vivastory I thought it was pretty unsettling & I'm a bit jaded when it comes to being scared by horror books. 6y
DGRachel I can‘t speak for this one, but I read another of her books in 2012, and I‘m STILL freaked out by it. I haven‘t been able to try another. 6y
Books_Wine_Repeat @vivastory @DGRachel 😳😳😳😬 maybe I‘ll just return this one. 🙈 6y

The man in black fled across the desert and the Gunslinger followed.

The final book in this epic series is ...epic. Roland and his Ka-tet continue on their journey toward the dark tower. I ugly cried and ugly cried. The ending was unexpected. I will miss all these characters: Roland, Detta/Odetta/Susannah, Eddie, Jake and Oye. There are other worlds than these. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️❤️🤘✌️ #googleimage

KathyWheeler Did you hate the ending? I didn't but I know a lot of people who did. 7y
MinDea @KathyWheeler I really liked the ending! It made me think so much. I really liked this series. I think about rereading it all the time, but I just have too many on my TBR books I want to get through. 📚📚📚📚📚📚📚 I did not know a lot of people didn't like the ending... 7y
Books_Wine_Repeat @KathyWheeler @MinDea I didn't hate it but I didn't love it either. I understand it though. It's the Gunslinger's entire purpose. I think if SK had ended it any other way, it wouldn't have been believable. 7y

KathyWheeler @MinDea yeah -- when the book first came out, there was a lot of hate for that ending. I got it though -- to me, that ending makes sense. 7y
TieDyeDude So epic! I would have been fine with the original ending, but I'm glad I read both, especially with the movie coming out 7y
Books_Wine_Repeat @GoodForCirculation I'm all for happy endings but who would've been able to stop there.... not after 8 books!! 7y

Lincoln in the Bardo | George Saunders

The death of Lincoln's son, Willie, & the immense grief portrayed had me in tears. The writing style was a bit confusing in audio format. Once I realized the interwoven historical quotes, listening became much easier. The spirits in the cemetery reminded me of the Graveyard Book but they were much funnier & foul mouthed. Also, there are 166 narrators!! It's all incredibly sad mixed with humor & wit. Read it. Listen to it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #googleimage

ClairesReads This was great! I loved it too 8y
Books_Wine_Repeat @ClairesReads Did you read it or listen to the audiobook? 8y
ClairesReads @Books_Wine_Repeat I read it- I am not much of an audiobook person at the best of times and I definitely don't think I would have coped with one with 166 narrators! 8y

Books_Wine_Repeat @ClairesReads Right! It was confusing. I want to get the print version just to see how it's formatted. 8y
Reviewsbylola I can't decide if I'm nervous or excited to read this! 8y
Books_Wine_Repeat @Reviewsbylola I would get the audio and print versions if possible. The narrators (Nick Offerman, Susan Sarandon, Megan Mullally, David Sedaris, Bill Hader, etc) were so good. 8y
KathyWheeler I couldn't decide about the audio because the structure was just so odd! I read it instead of listening to it. 8y

This is an intriguing and alarming look at how quickly a life can change with seemingly no warning. Her eventual diagnosis of Anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis is frightening. Thankfully she was provided the appropriate treatment in time and her story will help many who are suffering from similar symptoms and have been misdiagnosed. #googleimage

CoffeeK8 This book was so engrossing! 8y
susanw I'm reading this too, for book club. I agree, it's totally fascinating and scary! 8y

I liked this but I really wanted to love it. I may be burned out on YA dystopian/scifi/romance/etc. It was entertaining and had a few good twists, but it's too similar to a lot of other YA dystopian/sci-fi/romance that are more entertaining & written much better. Also, the ending was too neatly wrapped up. Can't say more without spoiling it. I'll probably still listen to the other books in the series but maybe I'll wait a few months. #googleimage

No one does sibling rivalry and revenge like Flavia! Makes me wish I was a little more creative when I was younger and had paid more attention in Chemistry. 🔮⚗️🔬👧🔭💉#teamFlavia #googleimage

drokka I love how her relationship with Dogger is complete juxtaposed the one with her sisters. Plus it's all hidden from her father. 8y
