The Stand | Stephen King

Listening to "The Stand" as a reread to refresh my memory of details as I start to read "End of The World As We Know It," a tribute anthology. Once again, I love King's world-building! #horror #StephenKing #audiobook

Currently reading: American Rapture by CJ Leede.

Really enjoyed her first book, Maeve Fly, so I‘ve been looking forward to this one.

Southern Festival of Books was brimming with fabulous vendors. Story Keeper Studio (look for them on IG) had so many adorable tiny book cases, and I could not believe my eyes when I saw the Vonnegut one!! I had to have it. 🤩

Dust | Charles R. Pellegrino

Pickpick

An apocalyptic novel about the Earth undergoing environmental collapse and how humans react to it. This was published in 1998 but some aspects seem scarily relevant, like the dangers of the anti-science movement.

Excellent story, weird graphics. Figuring out the characters at first was confusing but now I want to read more.

The girl was thickkk at 1154 pages and I did it! It‘s so good. It‘s funny there were some illustrations in this book because they weren‘t needed even though they were cool. King paints a picture of all of his characters so perfectly. Even without the horror of a viral apocalypse I would have read books about Frannie, Stu, Larry, and Nick all on their own. King is so good at the psychology of his characters. Pick!

GatheringBooks I‘ve read this decades ago but looking forward to reading the graphic novel adaptation! I got a copy from a Big Bad Wolf warehouse sale. 😍 2w

sarahbarnes Yay! 2w
youneverarrived Would love to re read but it‘s soo long 😆 2w
TieDyeDude Nice. I've never seen this cover! I read the original abridged version, but I'm definitely interested in the uncut edition for my inevitable re-read :) 2w
Reggie @GatheringBooks I hope it‘s cool! It sounds cool. 2w
Reggie @Ruthiella @Tkimsal @AmyG @sarahbarnes Thanks! Im not gonna lie, family visited this past weekend and deep deep inside the dark part of my reader heart I was pissed that I couldn‘t read The Stand while they were here. Ughhhh lol 2w
Reggie @youneverarrived it just became a comfortable companion after the first couple hundred pages. Part of me wished it didn‘t have to end. But I have the new anthology of stories by different horror authors that are set in the universe of The Stand so it doesn‘t have to end yet. 2w
Reggie @TieDyeDude yeah, I saw it and was in awe and knew I had to pick it up. Also cause the new anthology was out I wanted a refresher. And the extra 200 hundred pages freaked me out because I kept thinking- I don‘t remember this! lol 2w
Ruthiella I know exactly how you feel about family visits cutting into your reading time! 😂 2w
TrishB My fave King even now. I have the anthology ready too 👍🏻 2w
Reggie @TrishB I‘m shocked. You‘re gonna read a book of short stories?!!!! lol, I‘m in the middle of the anthology. I‘m really liking some of these stories and some…..idk what to think of. 2w
TrishB The Stand draws me in! 2w
vivastory @TrishB I remember when it was on TV here. SUCH a major event, TS is not one of my fave Kings, although there are aspects I greatly respect. I have the anthology & plan on reading next year! 1w
TrishB @vivastory I have to admit not watching the TV series! I‘ve hardly watched any King adaptations as a lot just aren‘t very good. If fans rate them, I may eventually watch them. 1w
Reggie @TrishB if you look up The Stand movie 1994 on YouTube the series is on there. It‘s a 6 hr video and it‘s ssooo good. I also recommend Cujo, Thinner, Silver Bullet, Christine. 1w
Bookzombie I love this cover. My copy was a tie-in for the 1994 movie that I still need to watch. It also had illustrations. It took me forever to read but it ranks high on my list. 6d

It‘s a book I don‘t regret reading but would not really recommend. Good ideas but the writing was lackluster. The dialogue in this book was truly horrendous. There was not any character development. The climax of the book fell flat because the tension wasn‘t there. Overall, ⭐️⭐️. #hauntedshelf #blackcatcrew

KT1432 Lol I just had a similar experience. 4w
Lin3han @KT1432 it‘s so sad because I was looking forward to this one!! 4w

wildwoodreads I felt the same way. I ended up dnfing it because the dialogue actually made me mad lol 3w
Lin3han @wildwoodreads I‘ve read better dialogue in fan fiction 😭😭 3w
Lin3han @Jess861 you definitely either love it or hate it. I‘m a hater at heart 3w

I just read the little prologue where Charlie wakes up Sally so they could get off base after he saw all those government employees dead of the virus. I turned the page to this and I just smiled. So excited to reread this.

Bookzombie As long as it took me to read this one, I already look forward to rereading it in the future. 🙂 4w
Suet624 Sooooo good. I should probably do a reread of this as well. 4w
Doll8455 I sure want to read this - right down my alley. 4w

Doll8455 Meant to say read again. Read when I was 20. Again at 40. And now at 82 it will be just as good. 4w
Oryx I just started a reread of this on audio 4w
Reggie @Bookzombie I‘m 100 pages in and as usual am reminded of why I love King so much. These are real people. 4w
Reggie @Suet624 why not, Sue? It‘s October. @Doll8455 I wanna say I‘ve read this before in my young 20s. I‘m in my 40s now, but I‘m not sure. I hope you pick it up. @Oryx my dad and I are reading this together for this month and he‘s doing the audio. 4w
