Welcome to Litsy!

Well, of course! 🐶📚

Everyone knows the name Cujo, but have all of us really gotten to know this poor canine? Stephen King has a way of telling stories unlike anyone else. Cujo isn‘t the only scary thing in this story; humans are far worse. Curiosity and a wanting for second breakfast literally lead Cujo straight down the rabbit hole, where bad things are. What happens next is horrifying but it‘s not his fault. Highlight to remember: please vaccinate your pets!💉

Shortly following those mortal events in the Camber dooryard, Cujo‘s remains were cremated. The ashes went out with the trash and were disposed of at the Augusta waste-treatment plant. It would perhaps not be amiss to point out that he had always tried to be a good dog. He had tried to do all the things his MAN and his WOMAN, and most of all his BOY, had asked or expected of him. He would have died for them, if that had been required. ⬇️

This was such a good read! I immediately put the first book on my To Read-List. It was spooky, with a lot of spookiness coming from how people are treated (e.g. reality). I never knew where the story was really going and yes, I had a soft spot for Derek. I think I'm into anti-capitalist satire.

A caution: DO NOT do an image search for said monster. The Montauk Monster is apparently a real cryptid in the area. The images are real but not a cryptid. Can I stop there?

I‘m not native to the NY area so this is new to me. Can we do Chessie or Bigfoot next? Okay, we‘re doing Bigfoot next🤞🏼

This volume gets gory, I‘m fine as it‘s fiction but animal experimentation that I‘m a big NO on.

Fun throwaway scary if you‘re in the mood though.

(You have to love when a book starts out like this): “Once upon a time, not so long ago, a monster came to the small town of Castle Rock, Maine. He killed a waitress named Alma Frechette in 1970; a woman named Pauline Toothaker and a junior high school student named Cheryl Moody in 1971; a pretty girl named Carol Dunbarger in 1974; a teacher named Etta Ringgold in the fall of 1975; finally, a grade-schooler named Mary Kate Hendrasen in the⬇️

Characters weren't really fleshed out and can also be seen pretty stereotypical.

This was a real slasher, atmosphere was awesome and I adored the setting too. This had so much action that at some point I started to hope some slower moment where characters could make plans.

I appreciate how hard it was to guess how everything was going to end but the reason is obvious after reading the author's note.

This was a fun read!

Current read.

I‘m sorry guys I had to DNF this one. I love a good vampire story but this one was just slow and boring to me. After reading the amazing “The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue” by V. E. Schwab I thought that maybe this book would be just as exciting. Unfortunately, it was not so I had to put it down.
