SUPERNATURAL

Meeting Joe Hill was one of the best author encounters I have ever experienced! He was so sweet and kind, and wildly funny! I'm diving into his new book immediately! And guess what?! It has a dragon! 🥳🐉📖

A low pick for me. Lots of gore and lots of ancient mysteries 😂

I forgot to grab a picture this morning, but a chipmunk almost dug up my poor frostbitten flower! It's still hanging on, though!

CBee @lil1inblue hey! Make sure to check the updated tag list for the hive. I posted about it yesterday and tagged you 😊 22h

lil1inblue @CBee I updated based on the latest list from @dabbe, but I don't see your post or tag from yesterday? I'm on android, though, and the notifications are not split into tags and comments, so I easily could have missed it. 21h

CBee @lil1inblue weird! Okay, no worries!

lil1inblue @CBee Oh, now I see it. I'm so sorry! I've apparently missed a bunch of drama (I often take a couple of days away for a tech break). I didn't even think to check for people to remove. I fixed my list, and I'll pay better attention going forward. 21h

CBee @lil1inblue oh gosh no, don‘t apologize! I‘m just doing my part to keep the hive drama free. Too much of that in the world already 🤪😔 21h

lil1inblue @CBee Thanks for doing your part! 💓 21h

Vampires Never Get Old: Tales with Fresh Bite | Zoraida Cordova, Natalie C Parker

so-so

This is a collection of short stories (I read on my kindle) … while some of the stories were great (they were all about vampires 🧛🏼) there were some that ramble so it was okay

Bookwormjillk I loved this one as a teen. I used to sit with my friend Amy trying to set things on fire with our minds for hours. It was the super power I most wanted to have when I was about 13. I still liked it on this re-read, but I thought the middle dragged a bit. Not a bad ending for King.

Also I think the first season of Stranger Things owes this book a lot! 3d

AllDebooks @Bookwormjillk yes, I found it a similar premise to ST. I loved the story and characters. I found it quite gripping in places. 3d

5feet.of.fury @Bookwormjillk yes! I thought it ended solidly, which he sometimes just doesn‘t do lol Agree about Stranger Things too. 3d

5feet.of.fury It‘s kind of smack between Carrie and The Institute both plotwise and character/scifi focussed. This was my first read of it, I just think it‘s neat 3d

ElizaMarie Wasn't able to re-read this one - I really need to organize my reading room - I know I had a copy of it somewhere! Anyway, I remember loving this one when I first read it, and as a fellow #KingGirlie I did the same @BookwormJillK 3d

bekakins Totally agree with the comments ref ST. This is one of my absolute favourites. 3d

kwmg40 Still waiting for a library loan, but I will get to this one eventually! 2d

Has anyone made the mistake of writing down their tbr pile sss ? I did and there‘s so many books I want to read but I keep getting other books and I read some and get more books… well the total is 358 after my week in Portlands bookstores ( this does not include books on my kindle or books that are in a series that I haven‘t purchased yet) 🤦🏼‍♀️ idk if I should laugh or cry 🤣🤣🤣📚

BarbaraJean 😂 😂 I have a document on my computer titled “Owned and Unread.“ It's divided up by category/genre and currently has a total of 431 print and 96 Kindle titles on it. 😍 😩 😂 (Edited to add: 429 print! I read two more of them this month! 🙌) (edited) 5d

BethM My owned and unread heavily outweighs my owned and read. I like to lie to myself and say that‘s bc I rehome them when I‘m done 😂 5d

MemoirsForMe I talked to a friend last week who has over 1,000 books. So our 400 or 500 seems more manageable, right? 😂 5d

CoverToCoverGirl Laugh and be joyful! I‘m in a worse situation than you. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I always say it‘s better to have extra than not enough. Imagine having nothing to read.😲 5d

Ddzmini @BethM … do not count them it just leads to anxiety 🤪 @MemoirsForMe that‘s such a nice thing to say I‘m so happy I don‘t have 1,000 … @CoverToCoverGirl exactly I remember the days I didn‘t have anything to read and I had reread so many of my favorites that it sucked. This is much better 4d

Ddzmini @BarbaraJean I wrote down all the physical books I have … I don‘t want to think about the ones on my kindle… so I could put it in my computer which is the next step for this journey 👍🏼 4d

Gissy @Ddzmini so happy to know that out there are readers, friends🙌 with the same beautiful problem. You can stabilize this emotional state by going to a bookstore for therapy 🤣🤣🤣🤣 (edited) 2d

Ddzmini @Gissy I‘ll have to tell my husband you recommended I take my therapy sessions at the bookstore…🤣📚 and keep piling on the 📚🤣🤣🤣 2d

Gissy With prescription: buy one book at least once a month or more if symptoms worsen. That sounds reasonable 😜😂 2d

Ddzmini @Gissy exactly what my Doctors said 🤣🤣🤣👍🏼 10h

pick

Read for #losersclub @BarkingMadRead
An iconic King novel.
My first time reading this one, it was good. I thought it would be more like Carrie, but it has a wider reach as far as Charley‘s backstory and the conspiracy surrounding those that are seeking to stop/control her.

BarkingMadRead This one always gets me, it‘s so good and so scary 5d

5feet.of.fury @BarkingMadRead yessss 5d

pick

In this mystery/fantasy hybrid, Greta Helsing is a physician to supernatural creatures, who are suddenly being targeted by a mysterious group. I enjoyed it but am disappointed that it barely passes the Bechdel test. I would have liked to have seen more of the very few female characters. #ReadYourEbooks

The Only Good Indians | Stephen Graham Jones

I‘ve been on a horror kick lately, mostly watching films and TV in between grad school work. However, I‘ve been feeling like reading lately when I have the bandwidth. Tonight I‘m starting the tagged. This cover reminds me of the film The Witch, though I doubt there‘s any overlap plot-wise. I have zero expectations which is the way I like it.

Reggie I love The Witch!!!! ‘Wouldst thou like to live deliciously?‘ Crazy Black Phillip. lol 6d

psalva I really enjoyed The Witch as well! I watched it back in February but my brain mostly remembers the atmosphere or feeling of it (and that it was entertaining). Definitely one I‘d rewatch at some point. 6d
