I decided to plow through the #buddyreadlongread and finish this monster of a book. It was quite compelling for the most part, and up to about 70% I would have given it 5 stars. But then it started to drag, and I thought it would never end. The big climax at the end was a little disappointing as well. Overall, though, there were certain characters that I really liked a lot, and the book is definitely worth reading. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #horror

amybeth I'm about 400 pages deep and loving it so far but I feel you on the drag sometimes, still I'm gonna finish the beast :) 7y
JenlovesJT47 @amybeth you can do it! Still definitely worth reading, there are lots of sections where I couldn't put it down. It was just at least 300 pages too long. Good luck! 🙃 7y
amybeth @JenlovesJT47 I feel ya, very good storytelling but I'm finding the creepy parts aren't coming frequently enough 😑😂 7y
JenlovesJT47 @amybeth I know what you mean! By 70% or so I was simply not scared by any of it. But there were some disturbing things that had nothing to do with the supernatural! 😱 7y
amybeth @JenlovesJT47 haha yeeaaaa definitely a few pieces that these children probably didn't need along with the clown. 😂 This is my first Stephen king novel though so it's a good jumping off point! 7y

Ok, I'm trying to finish up the next section of the #buddyreadlongread for tomorrow. And is it just me, or is it getting super crazy disturbing now? 😱😱😱I probably shouldn't be reading this at night now but I'm hooked. Hopefully I don't have nightmares about killer clowns tonight! Incidentally, I've always been terrified of clowns! 😱😱😱#horror #stephenking 😱😨😰😵☠️👻😱

MrBook 😂👏🏻 Oh, there's puh-LENty more to come 😈! Right, @HotMessJess ? 7y

Good morning, Littens! Today is supposed to be another hot day (they forecast 36 degrees celsius - yikes!) and I'm lucky enough to be working from home. Got myself a breakfast sandwich from the bakery, am currently filling up the pool and will sneak in a few pages of my book. I'm a bit behind on our #buddyreadlongread challenge so I'd better hurry if I want to finish this week's section in time for our discussion. 😊

WarpedSweetness @Tiffy_Reads changed the hashtag. It is now #lengthylit. :-) She made it shorter for us. 7y
Texreader That is a scorcher! Where are you at? 7y
scripturient @Texreader I'm in Germany. This kind of heat is quite unusual for us at this time of summer but we've had quite a few scorchers (just learned that word from you and love it 😊) already. If I hear anyone complaining about summer this year, I'll have to punch them. 😂😂 7y

I'm a bit behind on the next section for the #buddyreadlongread for It, because I started this audiobook last week and got completely engrossed in the world of Harry Potter again. And oh, the end of this one 😭- sigh. I'm so addicted I started the next audiobook last night instead of reading It like I'm supposed to - oops! 🙊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #harrypotter #siriusblack #audiobook #obsessed #reread 🤓⚡️

I fell behind on last week's section for the It #buddyreadlongread. Now I'm trying to catch up...sitting inside...with air conditioning. 😂

alisiakae 103 here in Zion National Park, Utah! Did a crazy hike today, and glad we were done by 1, right around the time it broke 100. A/C the rest of the day! 7y
BekahB @4thhouseontheleft this heat is miserable! It's supposed to be 120 here in Yuma on Tuesday. I'm not looking forward to it. 7y

Richie is so annoying with his stupid voices! I could never be his friend, he'd get on my nerves way too much. #buddyreadlongread #lengthylit

Aninski These voices better save their lives in the end, otherwise he'll annoy the crap out of me for 1000+ pages for no good reason :P 7y
BekahB I'm listening to this on audiobook and I totally agree. That would be a short friendship. 😂 7y
Aninski @BekahB I can't even imagine how annoying he must be in audio... You are brave! Haha 7y

BekahB @Aninski I've been switching between the audio and ebook, but after listening to the first Richie portion, I decided that I'd read of all his parts from then on. 7y
peaKnit Do we read all the way to part 3 this week? I'm a little discombobulated as the kindle pages don't match the readalong pages:) I have a friend that kind of reminds me of Richie, I tune him out at times😂 7y
peaKnit And thank you :) 7y
Aninski @peaknit Haha! I guess that's how they deal with him as well... he's lucky to have them as friends, I'd have yelled at him to stop long ago! 😤And yes, this week we finish part 2! Only ~700 more pages to go 😜 7y
