I hate John Rainbird. These are all feelings I‘ve had before; I just forgot about them. #audiowalk #LosersClub
No pictures or map from my #audiowalk. It was in the gym and boring. I had forgotten how much I hate the Shop in Firestarter. Government agencies with bad intentions also hit a bit different now. New little baby that my daughter found and brought home when he barely had opened his eyes yet. His name is Moxy, and he‘s doing well now. We weren‘t sure at first if he‘d be okay. #LosersClub
It‘s been a long time since I read this; my copy has the original white cover with fire partially covering a little girl‘s face. As with most King books for #LosersClub, if I‘ve read it in print before, I‘m using the audio for this reread. So far I‘m liking the narrator. #audiowalk

pickThis 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 🖤

pickI 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.

pickI‘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. 😅 ⬇️
pickApril‘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. ⬇️
