Split between my disgust of this man and curiosity. Election is in 8 days, so figured this was the best time to dig in…it‘s been on my TBR shelf for quite some time.

AmyG I was fascinated, too. What could have created such a horror of a human being? 3w

Holly: A Novel | Stephen King

Looking forward to this October‘s “Halloween read”! Also- my first Stephen King read!
Happy reading 😊

slategreyskies I don‘t think I‘ve ever read anything by Stephen King either. I‘m afraid his stuff would be too scary, and I‘m such a wimp when it comes to scary stuff. 🤣 1mo
MatchlessMarie If you end up liking this one you might like the Bill Hodges trilogy where Holly‘s character is introduced which is more thriller less horror. 1mo
Bec_lectic He has so many good reads. Hopefully you enjoy this one and want to read more. This one I have not read yet but it‘s on my list! 1mo
all_4_kb Thanks for the feedback!! I didn‘t find it scary at all. I‘ll definitely read more! 1mo

My recent trip to NYC, and 9/11 Museum definitely sparked the desire read this. No words can really explain the day; one I personally remember vividly.

*UPDATE* this book was AMAZING and one of my favorites as far as civil rights, more specifically Freedom Fighters books! So well done and I loved how these two stories intersected. So much history, emotion, drama, mystery & pain! 10/10 recommend!

***EDIT: this book was AMAZING! Highly recommend for all lovers of historical fiction (and history in general, really). Such an amazing and touching (often triggering) account of how life really was. The pain and brutality were very real and needs to be told in hopes of never repeating!

Time to switch up the genre!
I‘ve been reading for hours and now to start new book from TBR shelf!

SUPER excited about this one…. I‘m a huge follower of those who have been exonerated from being wrongfully imprisoned and here‘s yet another story told….

Reggie There was this story the other day, I wish I could remember his name. But he was from Idaho. He had been wrongly imprisoned for 20 years for the killing of a female friend. In fact he helps get a law passed in Idaho that for every year your falsley imprisoned you get a certain amount of money. He also helped pass the same law in Oregon. Sadly after so many years of being free he was found dead in a Las Vegas hotel. They said initially it was👇🏼 9mo
Reggie accidental but now they‘re thinking it was intentional. 9mo

My father‘s longtime friend has been an amazing LGBTQ+ advocate and just released another book! I just received my signed copy and on chapter 4 already! Very gripping and informative on the dangers of “praying the gay away” and how detrimental and scientifically debunked conversion therapy really is. MUST read for all people of the world- regardless of your sexual orientation or gender identity! *Wayne also included a small dedication to my dad*🥰

JamieArc Ooh. As an ex-vangelical who remembers people making those arguments, this book really intrigues me! 13mo
all_4_kb @JamieArc Yessss! The book is filled with SO MANY ex-evangelicals too!! This book truly delivers powerful information mixed with humor and some history and politics. 10/10 recommend! 13mo
Reggie It‘s crazy. There‘s been people who started some of these camps who have come out in the past couple of years as gay and say they were wrong. Crazy. 13mo
all_4_kb @Reggie yes, A LOT of ppl. It‘s all so sad really. I give them all the credit for clearing the record. 13mo
