Reading with My Eyes
@trhixson.bsky.social
I am a book blogger. I run readingwithmyeyes.wordpress.com, a book blogging site for the last six years. I love recommending books and getting recommendations.
Currently reading: God's Junk Drawer by Peter Clines @peterclines.bsky.social
. The reveal at the end of Chapter 11 made me gasp. I loved it! It makes perfect sense in a book of people, animals, and objects out of time. God's Junk Drawer comes out on October 11. #booksky #sciencefiction #horror

557 pages down in King Sorrow by Joe Hill. Great Storytelling, it could be my favorite Joe Hill. I did not have on my bucket list that the book would make reference "General" a story from Stephen King's Cat's Eye.

Last Night @parnassusbooks.bsky.social got to meet #MiddleGrade author Jason Reynolds. He signed Coach, his new novel. I did get a signed copy of Long Way Down the #graphicnovel version. I told him I resonated with coach as a former HS football coach myself. #booksky #books #sports #reading

I pick up a copy of Death Comes for the Toymaker written by @dakotabrown.bsky.social at Chattanooga Comic Con. This #graphicnovel looks so bad ass! I love the imagery and the idea of Death coming for Santa.

Why am I just finding out now Don Winslow has a new book coming out. I was so sad when he said he was retiring. Glad that only lasted 2 years. The world need more Don Winslow books.

Currently Reading: Snow by Ronald Malfi one review summed up the plot and said, If Invasion of the Body Snatchers happened during a snow storm. That was all I needed. I have never read Ronald Malfi before looking forward to Snow.

Currently Reading: Ghoul by Brian Keene. I'm getting why people say it is a darker version of Boy's Life by Robert McCammon.

Day 27: I don't have a book that I read in full every year, but I have a few passages I read from On Writing by Stephen King for inspiration. I have not been that prolific as of late but I have some story ideas.

Day 26: Biography that I think everyone should read is the Jim Henson Biography by Brian Jay Jones. This biography is incredible just like the man it covers. Book covers the entire life with great insights into the Muppets, Sesame Street, and Labyrinth.

Day 25: Book villain you actually love is Mary Terror from Mine by Robert McCammon. I love that she is so sinister. This baby snatcher will give Annie Wilkes a run for her money. She is one of the scariest villains.
