#ScreamQueen

⭐⭐⭐⭐
I loved the idea behind this story. Loved Addie. Loved the writing style. If it hadn't bogged a little bit in the middle - 3/4ths section, it would have been a 5 star read. As it is, it was still a terrific book.
Time: 7h13m

Mehso-so

There are 15 stories by 15 different authors in this anthology. I expected at least some of them to feature Sookie, but she was only briefly in one of them. Of the lot, 3 of them were moderately enjoyable. The remaining 12 varied from so-so to pointless filler. A waste of an audible credit. ☹

+1,106 (225 book, 1 post, 880 readathon points)

⭐⭐⭐
Eh, maybe it's because I hadn't read Practical Magic. But I struggled to care about any of the people in this book. It wasn't bad. But it wasn't great either.

I know I've posted about this book before, but Mary Meredith is perfect for both #death and #deadlypassion. And Lizzie is a #screamqueen. #junebookbugs #characters2017 #multitasking

The first character that came to mind for #ScreamQueen was Kaylee Cavanaugh, a Banshee!

When Kaylee screams (not something she is able to control) someone dies.

An interesting take on the traditional idea of Banshees 🙂

This book turned me into a #screamqueen! I couldn't sleep for days. I hear it's not one of his best, but I haven't done well with scary since I was a kid! Back then I loved Fear Street and all that jazz, but now? Give me a solid comedy or fantasy any day. #Characters2017 @LibrarianRyan

sprainedbrain I love this book! Scared the bejeezus out of my teenage self with it. 😱 7y

#Characters2017 #screamqueen Rosemary Woodhouse from Ira Levin's Rosemary's Baby came to mind first as a scream queen-especially as she was so well-played in the film adaptation by Mia Farrow. No spoilers if you haven't yet read the book or seen the movie, but her husband & neighbors certainly gave her something to scream about! I've mentioned before that I 'borrowed' this book from my parent's shelf at about 10 & saw the movie not long after.😱😱

SharonGoforth Love both the book and the movie ❤️❤️ 7y
JenlovesJT47 For us book purists, this is hands down the best book to movie adaptation I've ever seen. Very faithful to the book! 7y
Reggie Its eyes, its eyes, what have you done to its eyes?!!!!!! He has his father's eyes!!!!! Those aren't Guy's eyes!!!!!! Lolol love this book and movie. 7y

JazzFeathers I watched the movie years ago, when one of my flatmates wanted to do an all-scary movie night waiting for New Year. I was a bit disappointed with this, actually. I thought it was going go be a lot scarier 🙄 7y
Texreader Oooh that book. My daughter wants to read horror. Maybe this is a good one for her. I recall being pretty creeped out by it. 7y
AmyG This may just be my favorite movie of all time. It was just on cable the other day, so the world stopped and I had to watch. YOU'RE LYING! 🔪 7y

DebinHawaii @SharonGoforth @CherylDeFranceschi @LibrarianRyan Me too! ❤️📚👍@JenlovesJT47 Yes! I agree. I read somewhere that Polanski didn't know he could make changes so kept it close to the book! 📚👍 @Reggie 😆👍Hah! @AmyG I watched it again not too long ago too--a classic. 👍😀 @Texreader It's creepy for sure but in a suspenseful way for the most part. @JazzFeathers I think the movie is more nail-biting, suspenseful that scary but I still love it. 😀 7y
