This was a complete and over the top annihilation of innocence. 3 adults and 12 6 year olds go into the woods and never come out. This is their horrific story. I can‘t really recommend this one to anyone, but it is a pick.
erzascarletbookgasmI am most curious and intrigued by this book now, but I don‘t know if I am ready to read it 😱 after seeing all the reviews!5y
CentiqueI just watched Pitch Black on Netflix last night@Reggie so I‘m about ready to arm myself with a machete and a flame thrower before I next leave the house. 😂😂 I think that‘s my threshold for fear already reached. #notstacking#butyouwritethebestreviews5y
RaimeyGallantI'm terrified just reading the synopsis.5y
Reggie@batsy@DGRachel@ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled the parts that got to me were when the kids were always internally asking for their mothers and the part where the author points out that the kids didn‘t know they were at death‘s door. That they thought what and where they were was just temporary. There was a lot of psychology going on.5y
Reggie@Centique Lolololol yeah this is a definite no for you. Although it did remind me of Rain, because it‘s short and there is that section in the end that tells you about CPR. Well I‘m here the structure was the same but instead of 6 pages of CPR there is 6 pages of how a boar eats a little boy from his legs to his arms to his face. I started laughing because I had mentally checked out because of what the author was doing. Everyone else‘s death I5y
readordierachelI'm "enjoying" it. It's so f'ed up, but I'm hooked.5y
TrishBHope you‘re ok Reggie - not seen a post for a few days!5y
CentiqueYes! What@TrishB said. Your tribe is getting restless wondering where your wonderful reviews and comments are. 😉 Hope all is well and you‘re just off being busy. 🤞🤞💕5y
batsyLovely to see you back Reggie and it's true, sometimes time away is just what is needed. I'm feeling much of the same (40 next year) so I'm glad to hear that,@CarolynM 😅5y
Centique@Reggie omg Reggie, I was having conniptions that something had happened to you. Your last post was gruesome after all! 😂😂😂 I‘m MORE than glad to see your smiling face. 💕 And as for being 40 - you‘re wiser and more perceptive than at any other time in your life, less likely to put up with bullshit, more likely to prioritise what‘s important over what other people think - you‘re more golden than ever before and you‘ve got many years ahead!5y
Centique@Reggie I say this having taken a good few years to realise that myself! Now go write some of your famously unique reviews my friend to appease the ravenous hordes of your followers 😍🙂🙃😉5y
Reggie@Centique@batsy@TrishB it‘s funny, I was a little sad when I turned twenty cause I knew I‘d never be a teenager again. 30 didn‘t phase me at all. 40 blindsided me. Lol, thank you@CarolynM for the 50‘s preview.5y
Suet624Reggie, I was worried something had happened to you too! Honestly, what would the world and Litsy be without Reggie? (Not being melodramatic here.) I value hearing your thoughts and missed you.@Centique@batsy@CarolynM I have to tell you, much to my surprise, hitting 60 was a piece of cake. Just hitting my stride.5y
Centique@Suet624@Reggie I‘m so pleased to hear that! I think there are myths western society consumes about ageing - like we‘re becoming lesser as we age - and a kind of invisibility of older people and their stories that goes with it. Almost have to pull the curtain aside and find there‘s a vibrant world full of 40, 50, 60 and 70 plus out there 😊👍🤟5y
sprainedbrainI‘m so glad you‘re back! Sorry about 40... it happens to the best of us. 😂5y
Suet624@Centique I love your comment about pulling the curtain aside. It‘s very true that I‘m a lot less visible to people - they often look right through me - but that allows me to get away with a lot more than I used to! 😂😂5y
LibrarianJenI‘m glad that you were able to take a step back and bounce back from it. I think my crisis was when I hit 30. I didn‘t want to “grow up”. Hopefully 40 won‘t phase me.5y
ValerieAndBooksGlad you‘re back, Reggie! And that you got some time off. Yes, numbers ending with a zero does tend to have that kind of effect! But think of it as that you‘ve made it this far with many more to go 😘 😊.5y
Centique@Suet624 brilliant! That‘s a strategy I can get behind! 😂5y
