I have not read many chunksters this year so I‘m diving into “It”
🥁 🤡
Reading a bit of the master while I‘m in isolation…
I‘ve definitely had the same thought as Bill Denbrough during class…
Interesting...🎈
A "Something Wicked This Way Comes" post reminded me how much I like "kids on bikes vs. supernatural evil" books. I've read "It", of course, "Summer of Night", "Boy's Life", "Shadowshow" by Brad Strickland, and Thomas Tessier's "Phantom". I'm also familiar with (but haven't read) Brain Keene's "Ghoul". Anyone know of any more I can add to this list?

A book I‘ll never read but I can only think of this for #fair #savvysettings @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs
My all-time favorite Stephen King book, forever. My heart was taken by Pennywise a long time ago and Bill Skarsgard reignited the flame in 2017.
I read this book as a child and despite my efforts to be anything but a scaredy cat, I remember putting the book in the freezer each time I closed the book for the day.
This book is absolutely horrifying in the best way. King is a G.O.A.T and I appreciate whatever goes on in his attic.

1. Stephen King - though, I haven‘t read many lately. I've only read 3 in the last 5 years. I enjoy reading King with a buddy... Any upcoming Kingalongs? (Lately, you might think I've been on an Ann Patchett streak.)
2. Walking! With an audiobook. 😁
3. It‘s been a few years since I‘ve participated in a readathon; usually as a cheerleader, when I do. 🎉

Thanks for the tag @EadieB ❤
1. It by Stephen King
2. If I put off a book it depends mostly by the book itself. Maybe I'm not in the right mood to read that story, but it doesn't depend by its number of pages

1. I use a lot Litsy and Goodreads
2. 150 books 😱 I'm crazy and I will definitely fail on this!
3. Tagged one 🤟🏻
Got this shirt (as well as a pretty cool tumbler with many of the same characters & a horror themed trivial pursuit game) as a gift at Christmas and my sister's boyfriend asked "Not sure if you guys are celebrating Christmas or Halloween?" So what if we like horror movies & books, is that wrong? ?♀️?♀️??

1. Definetely the tagged one ❤
2. A friend of mine is pregnant and so I will become a aunt and I really can't wait! That little bean will receive a lot of books in the future 🤩 The mother totally agree with me 😂
Definitely the best Stephen King book i‘ve read so far. It had the most descriptive horror/gore scenes that really painted a picture, but also realistic and in-depth characters that sometimes it feels like you‘re reading about yourself. It was slightly mature at some points, but it really contributed to the story.
I will join this new #readathon by @Andrew65 that starts today!
#NovelNovember
My goal this time is just one: to finish It.
I missed 525 pages to the end and even it will be a super busy week I will to my best to hit the goal 🤟🏻
One last Happy Halloween.
🎈
Around 300 pages in! I guess I will read it even on the 31th night after my 15-23 shift 😂
I would be happy to finish it during October, but it sounds a bit unrealistic due to my shift 😂
Parts 3 and 4 going down tonight! #scarathlon2021 #teamhendrix @Clwojick @StayCurious
#WondrousWednesday @Eggs

2. Nightmare before Christmas
3. The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell ❤❤
@Mavey @persephone1408 wanna play?
That will be me once I'll be back to It in about 1h 😂
10.35 P.M. in Italy right now and the shift will be in about 30 minutes 😫 I need to reaaaaaaad 😫
Good morning, everybody! ❤
As I moved in a total new place, I went to the city's library to register me and I took the tagged book.
I was amazed by the ceilings and the walls, maybe it's an historic palace... idk, but it's beautiful!!
IT Chapter2- scary AF! One of the few sequel movies that lives up to the original. #horror #scarymovies #TeamSlaughter #Scarathalon2021
It's strange that even though I had some issues with IT, I feel in the mood for another Stephen King pretty soon... I think it's because I was so immersed.
Any ideas @vivastory @TrishB ?? I've heard Salem's Lot & Misery are pretty good. I've already read The Shining &The Bachman Books.
Until the last few hundred pages, IT was a cinematic masterpiece of storytelling. The sinister clown antics and malice of Derry were stunningly rendered and brought layers and layers of story to life.
I was expecting it to dovetail to a harmonious conclusion, but unfortunately the ending dragged and dragged. And then it hit a bum note that completed my irritation so thoroughly that I came away with a negative impression of the whole experience.
I feel the same about the last few hundred pages of IT as I did about Series 8 of Game of Thrones... IT was so close to being a masterpiece and I'm going to have to get my irritation in check before I can give it a fair review.
Can't believe how quickly I read this chunkster. I'm not a fan of a few scenes toward the end, but I really enjoyed it otherwise. Getting closer to #Bingo .

800 or so pages in and I've gained a reading buddy. Except it looks like she's plotting something 😄

Day 2 stats for #AnyWayYouReadathon :
I read for an additional 11 hours to add to my first day's 7 hours and read an additional 275 pages. I should be able to finish at least one of the books shown and complete my goals today without a problem.

Of course I had to order the IT shoes from Vans.
My week one scare pair is Stephen King's It. I'm still in the middle of reading this chunkster, but I watched the 1990 miniseries today. #screamathon #scarathlon
@4thhouseontheleft
Time for some light bedtime reading. I'm about a third of the way in and so far the storytelling is great. Only problem is trying to find a comfortable position to hold the book up! It's huge 😄
Happy Birthday to Stephen King who apparently is giving all of us a present!
