5feet.of.fury SK books are so crazy because so many start one way & end another. While he was putting together his plan and all the disguises to do The Last Job, I was still hoping there would be a way that he could just stay in the neighborhood & really be a writer. But of course, we have to go do something completely different. But I liked Alice & that 2nd arc too. 4d
BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury that ending 😳 I didn‘t see that coming. I was really hoping for a HEA for everyone, but it was a great ending! I wish SK wasn‘t so political in his books, but it‘s not a deal breaker so I guess I‘m putting up with it 🤣 4d

5feet.of.fury @BarkingMadRead he always has to throw in something against 🍊 since their twitter feud. 😂 I dont mind a political take in general but some of it seems thrown in for no reason other than being petty 😂 4d
BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury yes exactly! I get politics being mentioned, but he gets really hateful 🤣 it gives me Springsteen vibes every time 🤣 Bruce loves to make political speeches at award ceremonies 🤣 4d
TieDyeDude I loved the idea of his “dumb“ self, sitting there with his mouth a little slack, while thinking about literature and how to avoid dying 😅
@5feet.of.fury 🍊 🤣
4d
BarkingMadRead @TieDyeDude yes! And they all fell for it, which is amazing! 4d
PaperbackPirate @TieDyeDude Lol I loved that too. And also that he wasn‘t going to give up reading books to look dumb, just choose “dumber” books. 😂 3d
PaperbackPirate @5feet.of.fury I had the same hopes and dreams, even though I‘ve read enough King to know better by now. 😊 3d
PaperbackPirate I also loved The Overlook Hotel‘s cameo appearance! And the scary topiary animals are back! I was waiting for him to go back to the cabin after throwing the painting into the canyon to find it hanging up again. 3d
BarkingMadRead @PaperbackPirate those Easter eggs were making me giddy! I really wanted a last freaky incident with that painting! 3d

BookwormAHN I enjoyed this one but I thought it ended rather quickly and could of used another chapter or two. 1mo
5feet.of.fury I did not like this one, plotwise was ok -but seemed like 1/2 an idea to me -although many of his you never get a “why & how” and it‘s more about the characters react to the situation, which is very true here and the characters I thought were good except that I think the language/tone was wrong for the age / time period of the MC. Just in general the silly stuff he says. 1mo

5feet.of.fury Also why the gross creepy incest ending that adds nothing to the story or plot in any way? 1mo
BarkingMadRead @bookwormahn @5feet.of.fury 💯 agree, the incest seemed like a weird and unnecessary afterthought and the story itself could have been so much more! 1mo
5feet.of.fury @BarkingMadRead I was yelling “Ewww whyyyy Stephen” immediately tanked the book for me, I wasn‘t super impressed with this one anyway & that was ridiculous. &so pointless 1mo
PaperbackPirate The incest plot twist didn‘t ruin it for me but for sure I was like …huh. I made peace with it thinking that was supposed to explain where his “gift” sprung from? @5feet.of.fury @BarkingMadRead 1mo
PaperbackPirate This was my favorite of King‘s 3 Hard Case Crimes. 1mo
