No Another-inspired nightmares yet, but there will be.

These productions are addictive!

This is my favorite of King‘s books for Hard Case Crime. It‘s strong throughout and we know there‘s a kid who sees ghosts from the start. My only complaint is the big reveal at the end doesn‘t seem to add anything to the story@ and leaves a bad taste.

Not quite as strong as the first book, since there‘s less of a closed circle to this mystery but makes up for it with excellent folk horror vibes. If you wish The Creeper had more banter, check this out!

I was expecting Victorian (probably a combination of gothic and the title reminded me of the Cottingley Fairies) but it‘s set in the 1970s. Also, there‘s more going on than juts ghosts. So far its unexpectedly fun, reminiscent of the one-off gothic episodes on 70s television - or maybe The Night Gallery.

Today in “I do not think it means what you think it means.”

Realized I wasn‘t familiar with this story and decided to correct that omission in my sci-fi education. There‘s a waitlist for the book, so I thought I‘d listen to the 1968 BBC radio adaptation on Libby until my hold comes in.

I hadn‘t read Green writing in the real world before, so this was interesting.

The atmosphere and background is amazing, but Dia and the interns are pretty flat which makes the over-the-top twists a bit absurd.

Haven‘t read Pessl since Special Topics in Calamity Physics was new, but I‘m very excited to start this one!

Can we just get a prequel series with all the Council‘s drama?

“Don‘t talk in my sleep either.”

We were so close to getting an idea of what‘s going on!

Some ups, some downs and another fucking cliffhanger

You know it‘s bad when you call in the black sheep!

I did not realize we got to Opar so early in the series!

Not what I was expecting from the description and marketing, but the production quality is great and it‘s addictive as hell.

Tarzan soothes a broken heart by… becoming a French spy? Lots of fun when ERB isn‘t being racist.

I wish I liked these characters better. It‘s a great concept and the execution is good, I just want to slap Nicola and Amber.

I devoured this book, remaining riveted to every page. It was such an engaging read that I‘m rating it highly despite mixed feelings over the ending.

I read the description of this before the English translation released and it haunted me until I hunted down a copy. I started it last night, trying to decide if I wanted to read this or the next Charlie Fox thriller… and didn‘t look up until I was a quarter of the way through.

A very different experience than the Perry Mason novels, though Gardner‘s trademark dialogue and crime schemes are both evident.

Finishing this book makes me want to cry. It‘s like losing a friend.

I wanted to like this one! I like the concept and the execution. The tension is phenomenal. I completely understand why everyone recommends it. I just don‘t know why it felt like a slog to me.

OH MY GODDD WHAT DID I READ?!

“Dear notebook - I‘ll tell it to you straight- in my opinion the best horror magazine covers are the ones where the lady‘s boobs aren‘t spilling out as she‘s getting attacked by a monster. Those covers give me something worse than the creeps. I think the boob covers send a secret message that it is very dangerous to have breasts. - and considering what Mama is going through, maybe the magazines know stuff that we don‘t…”

At least I can say I‘ve read it?

Starting this today. Small town isn‘t pleased at the arrival of a new nurse. Can‘t wait to see what they‘re hiding.

Archeological horror? For me?! Don‘t mind if I do!

Shirley was an Elvis fan. Also Fats Domino, much to the distress of everyone else in the household.

I liked this one! It did some pretty unique things for the genre.

This is a surprisingly fun read but Tom is an asshole.

Lighter than most haunting stories, this is a great little palate cleanser for your spooky season reads.

Love the atmosphere and the premise, but I don‘t like how Simon views other people and I‘m having a hell of a time figuring out how much is the character and how much is the author‘s bias bleeding through.

I‘ve read a lot of “my life got derailed and now I‘m going to open a bookstore” novels, but so far this is the only one that looks anything like my experiences working in a bookstore.

I love this team‘s work and I was excited for the premise, but I‘m not seeing any of the care Brubaker &co usually put into their work, and none of the perfect jigsaw bits, it‘s still hot the gritty-noir vibe, but I‘m just not feeling this one.

I wouldn‘t care so much, but she‘s so specific about everything but her reading material, now that‘s she‘s out of college. She‘s always reading mysteries but never says which ones.

Loving this so far!

I started reading this the day before my uncle died, which made this a really weird read. Lots of good stuff about grief, though.

It was so well done and I hated it SO MUCH.
