Mehso-so

I had heard it but never believed it. I mean I‘ve read at least 20 of his books. But when I hear people say he coulda cut 200 pages about one SK‘s books, I thought they were outta their minds. I loved the first 200 pages. Pages 200-450, what a slog. But in the end I cried. That emotion does not erase that snooze fest of a middle. A young man finds a portal to another world and sets out on an adventure with his dog. Hurts my heart to do this-meh.

AmyG Spot on. 20h
TrishB The middle bit was very obvious. 15h
Reggie @AmyG thank you. Cause man I was thinking maybe it was me. 15h

Reggie @TrishB for the first time ever I just felt he was telling me instead of showing and there was a lot of “he went left, right, over the hill and saw a lot of Monarch butterfly art that was vandalized.” lol I wanted to shout-Stephen!!!!!! Move it along! 15h
AlaMich I think quite a few of his books in the last decade or so could‘ve benefitted from a page shave. But I guess nobody tells SK what to do. 15h
KathyWheeler I liked this book, but it did indeed drag in the middle. I almost didn‘t finish. 10h
Reggie @AlaMich I don‘t want to say maybe as long as the cash is coming in who cares but yeah can‘t we revise and edit a little? 6h
Reggie @KathyWheeler I wouldn‘t have blamed you if you hadn‘t finished. 6h

Today we had training on an update to one of our systems and this guy was one of the trainers. When he got up he asked if we had any questions. I asked if anybody had ever told him he looks like Stephen King. He said all the time. The photo does his likeness no justice. In person for a minute I thought Stephen had Schwarzeneggered Chloe. He looks like Joe. Fairy Tale is my bookclub book for this Friday, so it all felt serendipitous. He was so nice

vivastory Lololol I'm so far behind on the recent King books. Most recent one that I read was the institute. I especially want to read If It Bleeds for the Holly novella and the Life of Chuck novella 1d
Centique That is so cool. A SK Doppelganger 😍 9h
Reggie @JamieArc @TheBookHippie @Ruthiella @AmyG @kspenmoll @IriDas @tpixie @AnnCrystal @vivastory @Centique he said he and some friends were eating at a nice restaurant when the staff asked if he was Stephen King. He says no but you should see my dad. He just meant his dad looks way mor like King than him. When they asked for the check they said it was already taken care of, just next time bring your father. He felt bad but they left the waitress a huge 5h
Reggie tip. 5h
Centique OMG that is hilarious! I would have felt so awkward though! 5h
AnnCrystal @Reggie 😂 that's a grand story. I'm sure they made the waitress happy even if it was a case of mistaken identity 🆒💫. 2h

Beautiful artwork. This book is told in four different stories in four different seasons. We see Hazel blowing off work to enjoy the summer fun, raising an owl in the spring, finding a new friend in autumn and getting lost in the winter. Lovely stories.

TheBookHippie I adore this book!!! 3d

A pure joy. Early 20th century Toy Story. Raggedy family of cheerful dolls versus a new, boring, and haughty family of dolls. The haughty ones learn to love the shabby ones right before the Princess rescues them from being burned.

I didn't know Burnett moved to Tennessee as a child.

#ChildrensClassicRead @TheBookHippie I am so grateful for this list.
