5feet.of.fury The beginning was such a bummer that I almost didn‘t go on. (Pam, The divorce, the DOG😩) but I ended up really enjoying it. 2y

BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury I know! Stephen King is so messed up! 2y

Erinsuereads Ohhhh the dogggg 😭😭😭😭 but in typical king fashion it gets so much worse 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I remember the first time I read it closing the book and setting it on the coffee table and staring at it when he finds out about Elsa. I knew it was coming from all the foreshadowing but still! @BarkingMadRun and @5feet.of.fury 2y

BarkingMadRead @ErinSueMreads that was the worst, knowing it‘s coming never helps! It almost makes it worse! 2y

Erinsuereads Yessssss especially since the heavy foreshadowing started like 4 chapters prior! 2y

Erinsuereads Also going back to the first time i read it....did anyone else think it was going to a weirdly normal king book at first? Like the paranormal stuff really took me off guard for some reason. 2y

BarkingMadRead @ErinSueMreads yes! I thought it was going to more like a cujo type of thing, something scary but real, and then wham! 2y

5feet.of.fury @ErinSueMreads agree! The change in narration with the daughter “that was the last time we ever talked” 😭 and I was like “what he just saved her, she burned the picture!” Ugh. Everything after that became such a frenzy. Loved it @BarkingMadRun (edited) 2y

5feet.of.fury @ErinSueMreads I did, Edgar was so tortured after the accident I thought it was going to be more of a war with his mind type of thing vs…. All the other things that happened. 2y

Erinsuereads @BarkingMadRun it really is a WHAM too! 2y

Erinsuereads @5feet.of.fury that literally hits you like a ton of bricks. Like physically feel your stomach drop out of your body. And yes! I thought it was going to be a psychological one too! And it's not even like he tries to hide that it won't be! The whole book gets progressively weirder! But for some reason my brain just avoided and avoided 🤣🤣🤣🤣 2y

Erinsuereads Also can we talk about how jack, wireman, miss Eastlake, and Edgar are literally some of the best characters he has ever written? Like we all know he's a strong character writer, but he really outdid himself on this one. Wireman especially is just so overtop yet so real at the same time. I want a wireman friend 2y

Erinsuereads Unless he comes with a moldy old mansion full of maybe vampires and porcelain dolls. If so so I'm out 2y

Erinsuereads Also also...ifso....since we were on the subject of iykyk @BarkingMadRun I'm almost deleted the last sentence in my previous post 🤣 2y

BarkingMadRead @ErinSueMreads omg yes! Such vivid characters and everyone needs a wireman. I was really hoping for a Shawshank ending! 2y

BarkingMadRead @ErinSueMreads 🤣🤣 2y

Addison_Reads I didn't get a chance to re-read this one but this discussion is making me want to go back to it soon. 2y

Bklover @ErinSueMreads I agree- his characters are always wonderful but these are exceptional. I remember though the first time I read this the whole book felt weird as it doesn‘t take place in Maine. It still feels odd to me reading a SK book that takes place in Florida. I love this one though! 2y

NikkiM5 I just finished the book, so I avoided the post until now. I loved this book. And totally agree, these are some of the best King characters; I loved them all. Except Pam, she can kick rocks in socks 🤣 2y

BarkingMadRead @NikkiM5 I agree lol what a horrible human she is 2y

NikkiM5 I admit she is a good “villain”. And despite the size of this book (I promise, I will be on time next month 😂 I need to check these page numbers) I did not want this book to end. And I loved looking up the artwork. That‘s also why I took so long, as usual, King had me googling a lot. Losing Wireman was pretty painful, ugh la loteria 😢 2y

BarkingMadRead @NikkiM5 I love when I have to Google during a book, but it can often be such a rabbit hole! After this we are doing Under the Dome, but I think I‘m going to extend the time because it‘s THICK 2y

NikkiM5 Yes and I am a sucker for Rabbit holes 🤣 I‘ve read Under the Dome, so I won‘t be late for that 2y

Duma Key | King, Stephen

My #dumakey cover for #losersclub

About 90 pages in and I‘m enjoying it so far

BarkingMadRead

BarkingMadRead Awesome cover! I think my original copy had that cover. I‘m so mad that I passed all of my Stephen king on se one point. Now I‘m trying to rebuild lol 2y

NikkiM5 @BarkingMadRun I am slowly rebuilding my library, which of course included a lot of King. I will never get rid of all of my books again 🤣 2y

'Salem's Lot | Stephen King

I'm listening to this one and it has a line similar to a line in another of Stephen Kings books "listen not at a knothole lest ye be vexed" in #DumaKey its "peek not at a keyhole lest ye be vexed" neither of which has any origins that I could Google. I did find out it was used in #StormoftheCentury which I have not read yet.
