Where Are The Children? | Mary Higgins Clark

I remember WAYYYYYYY back in the day when my mother was reading this book, this cover scared the shit out of me 😅 I was about 7 or 8, and there was just something about that red mitten along with the title that got me all 😱

Prairiegirl_reading Kept me up all night, back in the day!! 💜 2y

dabbe I love when books popped up from my (ahem) younger days! MHC was THE female writer of mysteries; I kind of likened her to Sidney Sheldon. We couldn't WAIT for the next book to come out. And wait we had to do--in the good ol' days! I might have to revisit her! #thanksforthememory 💕 2y

TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe MHC was the bomb digitty for my mother, along with Sidney Sheldon. I couldn't wait to be old enough to read them. So right after I snuck Flowers in the Attic, I read Where Are The Children, moved on to Sidney and never looked back. It's funny, when I was taking the picture I thought the same about a MHC revisit! #thanksforsharingmymemories 💕 2y

TheBookgeekFrau @Prairiegirl_reading Other than being afraid of the cover -- I don't remember the story, and I read it TWICE 😅 But the last time I read it was 30 some odd years and thousands of books ago. 2y

Prairiegirl_reading Oh same!! But I know where I was when I read it and I remember being in trouble about staying up so late. Mary Higgins Clark had a way of doing that to me. 2y

TheBookgeekFrau @Prairiegirl_reading I love how a book can bring back such vivid memories, yet we can't remember the story 🤣🤣 2y

dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau OMG! Flowers in the Attic! That's another one! I told my mom it was a heartwarming family story, and she let me read it in middle school! 🤣 I only read the first one, though. It really creeped me out. 2y

TheBookgeekFrau @dabbe I think I was about 10 or 11 when I read Flowers. It creeped me out too, but like a train wreck; I couldn't stop reading. 2y

MemoirsForMe Oh yes! MHC and Sidney Shelton! Couldn‘t get enough of them back in the day. And couldn‘t put them down! 😍🙌🏻 @dabbe 2y

TheBookgeekFrau @UwannaPublishme So damn hard to put down!! 2y

MatchlessMarie How funny! Thanks for playing along last month. 2y

TheBookgeekFrau @MatchlessMarie You're welcome! Thank YOU for hosting, I had a blast!! 2y

Joyland | Stephen King

pick

Been slacking on #LosersClub reads the last couple of months but I started and finished Joyland yesterday 🎧 I really enjoyed this one. Loved the Mike character 🧡 Probably a good one to try if you want to read King but are intimidated by the volume or scare factor of his other books. #20in4 #LitsyLoveReadathon #ScaryFebruary #Witch
