A rather sinister news item featured in many UK press publications this week. Scary timing for those of us who have recently read the tagged book.

pickThis was weird, and good. I would have preferred less flash backs, and the last chapter could have been cut entirely. But it was interesting, especially in that it was written pre COVID! (18)
⭐️: 3.75/5
Really excited about this! #thelongwalk #losersclub #StephenKing #StephenKingInOrder #KingFromTheBeginning #ConstantReader #ReadAlong #BuddyRead #BookDiscussion
pickAs all good dystopian fiction should be, this is eerily prescient and portrays a future one can almost see, and certain fully imagine. What was lacking for me is a full exploration of tech firm DreamSaver Inc; we get a chapter or two focussed on one of their developers, but nothing more and this felt a missed opportunity to take the story further. It also had echoes of other dystopian fiction I‘ve read, however overall a great read.
pickThe tale of one woman‘s life starting from birth. Set in Florida where hurricanes have reclaimed so much, not just the land but the lives of loved ones. This is an incredible believable look at climate change.
I will anticipate more from this author as Good Morning, Midnight was also great.
panI get that it‘s a metaphor for (in particular the Vietnam) War. I see what the purpose was. But holy moly was it boring.
pickHow can this person write so different books? So different and so good ones? He must spend so much time plotting all this to make it work and it does! The story could've used a bit more speed throughout the book. The end was breathtaking for me and my mind was all over the place. I let Emory do all the work, because there's no way I could've figured anything out here. Now I wonder what will Turton come up with next.
