We had to make a pit stop in Bangor to see Stephen King's old house. Rumor has it that most of It was written here, which checks out especially when you turn the corner and see the massive Paul Bunyan statue...

Texreader Oh how awesome!!!! 🤩 3d

Perfectly reasonable reaction to the loss of good oatmeal cookies and you know death 😅

From the warped brain of Stephen King….

Really enjoyed this one- an author kills off his pseudonym but his pseudonym doesn‘t want to die.

A great kick off to my summer reading, and possibly one I‘ve never read before.

The Long Walk | Stephen King

This is one of my favorite of King's books. I can't wait to see the movie this September.
Set in a dystopian America, 100 boys are chosen for the long walk, where they walk until only one is left. If they stop, if they try to leave, if they are too injured to continue, they are shot dead. Ray has signed up to be in the walk. How far will he get? It's so bleak but so engaging 🖤

I didn't care for James Franco's narration of the audiobook, but otherwise I loved the story. It's hard not to think about today's politics when reading this book, though it was written over 45 years ago.

This month‘s book is #firestarter Grab your copy and check back at the end of the month for open discussion! Don‘t forget to tag me so I can see which version you have! #LosersClub #StephenKing #StephenKingInOrder #KingFromTheBeginning #ConstantReader #ReadAlong #BuddyRead

Bookwormjillk I‘m still working on The Dark Half which I read accidentally last month. Then I have the new one and this which both came in from the library at the same time. It‘s going to be a King filled month. Not complaining because to me Stephen King=Summer reading. 6d
bekakins This is one of my absolute faves! I used to have a hardback omnibus of The Eyes of the Dragon & Firestarter and it was proper comfort reading for me whenever I was off sick from school 5d

I‘m not sure how this one ended up on my Libby holds list since it‘s not going to be on the #losersclub schedule anytime soon but instead of delivering later yet again I was like ok let‘s read her! I know this was meant to be scrapped but I loved it so much and I can‘t get the story out of my mind. I‘m catching up on the adaptations too. As you can see, it‘s very meme-able. 😅 ⬇️

MatchlessMarie I plan on making some oatmeal cookies (referenced in the book) later today as well since I‘m already making another book referenced cookie today. Cookie party! 6d

The Long Walk | Richard Bachman

April‘s #losersclub pick but read in May. It was physically exhausting getting through this one as someone who struggles with daytime drowsiness reading about how tired all these guys were. 🫩 Which maybe made it a more immersive experience? 😂 I did find the 4mph rule distracting since I was listening to the audio. Holding a conversation is taxing at 3mph let alone 4 so I had to suspend disbelief in that aspect. ⬇️

MatchlessMarie I believe they have lowered the mph rule for the adaptation which I am looking forward to seeing in September. The cranked up existential dread made up for the tediousness and made this a pick for me. 6d

Tale as old as time.

ImperfectCJ Reading this, I realize that my default internal narrator for any Stephen King novel sounds like Richard Dreyfuss. I blame the movie Stand By Me. 6d
MatchlessMarie @ImperfectCJ This audio was actually done by Michael C Hall and was great! But yeah I can see that 😂 6d
ImperfectCJ @MatchlessMarie That's what's funny to me...I've listened to plenty of King's audiobooks not narrated by Dreyfuss (did he even narrate any of them?), and yet he's still my default. Except for books from the female protagonist's perspective. In those cases, I suspect it's Julianne Moore, but I haven't given it much of a test. 6d

MatchlessMarie @ImperfectCJ I will usually toggle between kindle and audio if listening on audio because sometime I just need to see the words (like subtitles haha) and I think my internal voice tends to be Stephen King himself actually. That is something interesting to think about for other authors though! 6d

MatchlessMarie @willaful the really bad one is when you are looking for the glasses that are on your face 😆 6d
