Such a good trilogy. Couldn‘t put it down.

Day 2: Litsy knows something that booktube hasn't seemed to realize yet, King's Bill Hodges trilogy is among his best. Mr. Mercedes was a bit of a revelation for me as it was the first time I had read a non-horror title by King. I was immediately hooked. I recall having mandatory training at the time & going out to my car to sneak in a chapter or two during breaks.👇

vivastory I'm thrilled that King continues to create new stories with a character first introduced in this trilogy, Holly Gibney. #Top20Series #20Series20Days @andrew65 4y
Andrew65 I own the first one of this and clearly need to read it! 4y
vivastory @Andrew65 I think they're fantastic. The first 2 are more mysteries. The last one is a mystery with a twist, a bit like The Outsider. 4y

Andrew65 @vivastory You‘ve just accelerated them up my TBR! Hopefully start it later this month. 4y
rabbitprincess This series is my favourite work by Stephen King! 4y
vivastory @Andrew65 Well I guess thriller/police procedural would be more accurate than mystery. 4y
vivastory @rabbitprincess It's in my top 10, for sure! 4y
KathyWheeler This trilogy really is among his best work. I love it. 4y
Andrew65 @vivastory Right up my street. 4y
NikkiM5 Looks like another King series I have slacked on. Looking forward to checking this out. 4y
vivastory @NikkiM5 I look forward to your thoughts on this one! 4y

Has anyone else watched the Mr. Mercedes tv show? It is filmed in Charleston where I live. Of course there are changes but it is pretty good so far. My husband hasn‘t read the books and he is loving it. I think it is easier to enjoy when you aren‘t making comparisons.

Craftylikefox Oh wow! I had no idea it was already airing? What is it on?? 5y
Elma I've read the books and I enjoyed the TV show. I think they did a really good job adapting it. 5y
Bookladylinda Oh, I haven‘t watched this one yet. And I also haven‘t finished the trilogy. 🤦🏾‍♀️ I should probably do that first. 5y

JoScho @Craftylikefox some channel called Audience on AT&T I think. 5y
JoScho @Elma yeah so far I am really enjoying it. We have one more episode left in season 1. 5y
JoScho @Bookladylinda lol you should for sure finish it. 5y
rabbitprincess Brendan Gleeson?! 😍😍 I loved the books -- possibly my favourite works by King 😅 5y
JoScho @rabbitprincess yes and he is great Bill! 5y
Bookladylinda @JoScho yes indeed! 5y
Craftylikefox Oh cool! I don‘t think I have that in the woods of Maine haha but at some point maybe it will go to Hulu or Netflix 😊 5y

U is for Under Debbies Blue Umbrella! It's a website which was used by the Mercedes Killer to taunt Bill Hodges.

GarthRanzz Just shows I need to finish/re-start the trilogy already. I had totally forgotten about the taunting on the website. 6y

B is for Bill Hodges and Brady Hartsfield of the Bill Hodges trilogy! #KingAtoZ
I absolutely loved this trilogy! Hodges is one of my favorite King characters!
The picture is from the show, which I sadly didn't get to see.

AmyG Like minds. I did Bill Hodges too. 👊🏻 6y
ChelseaM6010 @AmyG 👊😊😊 6y
GarthRanzz Lots of Bill and Bill today. And I love them all! I need to finish the trilogy, still have the third book to read. And then watch the show. I have had it saved up to watch so I need to quit being lazy and just read the third book! 6y

Sweettartlaura Hey... 🤔... I‘m JUST realizing that Bill Hodges & Brady Hartsfield have the same initials. I know Bill‘s would technically be WH... but is King saying something here???🤔 6y
ChelseaM6010 @Sweettartlaura I never thought of that!!! Maybe! 🤔 6y
Sweettartlaura @Chelsealpatt Usually I would say this means he‘s trying to tell us they‘re more alike than not. But I don‘t recall feeling like Hodges & Brady had ANYTHING in common. 6y
ChelseaM6010 No, they didn't, not that I can recall 6y

I've only read Mr. Mercedes, but I greatly enjoyed it & will definitely be reading the rest of the trilogy.

GarthRanzz This is a series I still need to finish as well. Still need to get around to book three. 6y
TricksyTails I looooooove this series and really want this box set! 🖤🖤🖤 6y
vivastory @GarthRanzz I'm hoping to catch the tv series of Mr Mercedes too. I've heard great things about it. 6y

vivastory @TricksyTails isn't it great?! 6y
GarthRanzz @vivastory I‘ve got it saved up to watch! Don‘t want to start it until I finish the series. Makes me a little sad in that Anton Yelchin was cast in the role of Brady Hartsfied but died before the started filming. 6y
vivastory @GarthRanzz Yelchin was a great actor. Such a tragic loss. Did you see one of his final films The Green Room? I highly recommend it. 6y
GarthRanzz I have that and Rememory on my watch list! Need to just do a marathon soon. 6y
bibliobliss Good one! Creative! I‘ve only read the first one too but want to finish the series. 6y
TrishB Great series 👍🏻 6y

My first Friyay Intro! Thanks @jesshowbooks for hosting #friyayintro #littens
1. Chocolate lava cake with ice cream
2. Hmmm I guess SVU but the last binge was Marvelous Mrs. Maisel on Prime
3. Finders Keepers by Stephen King because it was so suspenseful
4. One week!
5. Will do

My #favoriteseries has to be this one. However I am planning on starting The Dark Tower series soon so we shall see. 😉 #stephenking17

Smashlee I've stalled on the Dark Tower. I don't hate it but I keep getting sidetracked. (edited) 7y
Gayan @Smashlee I think I might give it another try while we are on vacay. 7y

If I have to pick a King book to be in, I THINK I can stay safe in the Bill Hodges's series. (Not sure I WANT to be in any of them) I can help him solve the mystery! #StephenKing17 #bookyouwanttobein

TheLondonBookworm Being in a Stephen King book now that's a scary thought! 7y

I don't read a lot of mysteries, so this was the first thing that came to mind. I thought the series started and ended strong. The middle book was ok.

Unlike some others, I thought King was in fine form for this series. Somewhat of a departure from his usual supernatural horror fare, but by the last book he had figured out how to bring it to the table as well. The first and last books were very well-done. The second book was interesting but loosely connected, but I was willing to buy it just to keep it going. Highly entertaining and kept me on the verge of obsessed.
