Shamefully, I’ve not read this before. I’m three chapters in and adore its prose and ambience. I can definitely see Pynchon being influenced by her and can’t wait to keep going through this book

Quite an enjoyable retelling of the tale. Sendak has always been one of my favorite illustrators and King even managed to tie it into the Dark Tower universe

This one is gonna stick with me for a while. A tremendous critique of the horrors of both industrialized farming and late-stage capitalism. Highly recommended, but be warned it is extremely unsettling in its portrayal of violence

Been reading this in bits and pieces over the last several weeks and am really enjoying it. I’ve discovered a treasure trove of new bands as a result and some great writers

Found a bookstore in Newark, DE called 2nd & Charles that had a sale where used books were one penny per page. This whole stack cost me less than $40

Just finished my second journey to the Tower and it was every bit as good as the first.
Say what you will about Sai King, the man can craft quite the tale and made some of the best characters in fiction, full stop.
Long days and pleasant nights

Haven’t had time to read amidst all the chaos in my life over the last few months, but this is the perfect book to break out of my slump. If you haven’t any read @sgj.bsky.social, the Indian Lake Trilogy is a perfect entry point (My Heart Is A Chainsaw/Don’t Fear the Reaper/The Angel of Indian Lake)
