Loving this! Brand-dropping has dropped to an acceptable background level. Hope it stays brilliant...

Jerlynn I love that book, such a classic 5y

Finished The Shining. Loved the book, don't love the cover. Covers/editions like these get the "tie-in" tag in my (LibraryThing) catalog. ?

'Salem's Lot | Stephen King

Pickpick

Finished 'Salem's Lot today! Somewhat annoyed that there's still 150 pages of extra content left. Last night I stopped reading thinking there was still a bunch left to happen, while I was actually only a handful of pages from the end. I feel it's important to know when the end of a novel is coming, it helps with the comedown and managing expectations and the dwindling number of remaining pages would usually help to anchor your reading. #losersclub

The typesetting errors in this edition (Sevenoaks : New English Library, 1984) were somethong else though! I've never seen that many in a serious publication before; up to 2 on a single page..

Carrie | Stephen King
Pickpick

Part of me expected Stephen King's first novel to be somewhat of a raw gem, showing the promise of his career-to-be, but still being a bit rough around the edges. What I got instead was a terrific novel that already had all the elements that make his books so great. It's as if his writing style has crystallised fully formed all those years back now. And there's still so much to come! #losersclub

Swe_Eva It does as if he was just born with his writing skills, doesn‘t it. 👍🏻 7y

A semi-public commitment to continue reading in this book borrowed from a friend...
