Poignant, brutal, achingly original story of two very flawed fathers looking for revenge following the murder of the gay sons they rejected. No wonder it just won the Anthony for best novel. And no, I am not stalking Shaun Cosby at Bouchercons. Not really. Ok, maybe a little… #5stars #powerfulread #voice #faveauthors

"Of course they needed to care. It was the meaning of everything." - The Giver

“I, myself, am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.” - Augusten Burroughs

• Day 22 of #KingAtoZ with my first non-book entry. Today is the letter V for “Virtuoso,” a word that describes King perfectly •

“Now, as all of you will have had reason aplenty to discover for yourselves, there are new gods growing in America, clinging to growing knots of belief: gods of credit-card and freeway, of internet and telephone, of radio and hospital and television, gods of plastic and of beeper and of neon. Proud gods, fat and foolish creatures, puffed up with their own newness and importance.”

• Day 11 of my favorite Litsy challenge: the letter K for King...the man himself! Where would we be without his creative genius? In the words of Walter Matthau, “It‘s too horrible to think about!” He‘s the reason we believe in monsters...he‘s also the reason we believe monsters can be put to great use! •

GarthRanzz Great K! He‘s the reason for my love of reading. He not only shows us the horrors of humanity but the heart of it that saves us. 😍 7y
bibliobliss @GarthRanzz 👍🏼♥️ 7y
GarthRanzz And thank you Allison! I meant to say that in my first post but got distracted. 😊 I‘m so glad you‘re enjoying the challenge! 7y
bibliobliss @GarthRanzz I really am! I think many of us are 😉 7y

Apt Pupil | Stephen King
post image

• Annie Wilkes (psycho number one fan) from “Misery” is a great way to start! I‘ve got this one ☝️ for my first #KingAtoZ challenge entry. Great idea @GarthRanzz I hope I can keep up! I actually haven‘t read this yet 😐 •

#challenge #faveauthors #novels #theKing #StephenKing

GarthRanzz Oh, Apt Pupil is good! And you do need to read it. It‘s one of those disturbing human horror stories where man is the monster. And hits a litre close to home in today‘s world. 7y
bibliobliss @GarthRanzz Definitely on the looming TBR!! Thanks for the rec 😉 7y
GarthRanzz Have you seen the movie with Ian McKellen and Brad Renfro? One of the better movie adaptions. 7y

"Hallelujah that in spite of it all, there is love, there is singing, nature, laughing, mercy."
Anne Lamott spoke at a fundraiser yesterday for a crucial mentoring program in Houston, re Vision, so I invested in a ticket. She is just as kind, humble, funny & curious in person. (She signed my copy of "Bird by Bird," too!!) #faveauthors #spirituality #writing #mentoring #compassion
