The Stand is my number 1 book of all time. I read Swan Song, and it's also very good. I'd say it was Robert's love letter to King

@lil_ydraws33 9 месяцев назад

Pierce Brown wrote another masterpiece with Lightbringer! Even though it’s still brutal, it felt like we got to spend more time seeing the characters connect, which I loved. Cassius definitely has one of my favourite character arcs in the series.

Honestly, the first 1/3rd of The Martyr was rough but it does get a lot better. Looking back I think its my favorite of the trilogy but slightly.

@AshlynnHolmes13 9 месяцев назад

I loved the Pet Sematary audiobook! It was narrated by Michael C Hall and the voice he used for Jud was great! It made me laugh a lot but it also made me emotional. Losing someone is so painful and the urge to bring them back, despite the consequences presented in this book, are very strong. He uses that paranormal lens to show you through his classic Stephen King way that you can’t bring them back in real life. You have to live with the grief and no amount of stalling, or bringing them back from the dead, is going to help you. You’re just prolonging the inevitable. It’s a painful book but it’s a hard truth we all must face no matter how it’s delivered. Definitely a must read even if I made it sound depressing 😅 I wanted to start it over the second it ended!

@iangubeli 9 месяцев назад

Pet Semetary was AMAZING! The ethical and moral questions that arise with an opportunity like Louis had…cannot imagine. It’s a crime against nature what happens in that book!!

@AshlynnHolmes13 9 месяцев назад

@@iangubeli I agree! Part of me wished King pulled back a bit and made the ending more of a hard lesson that the main character had to endure. I expected the ending being the way it was but it was such a solid book and then complete chaos at the end. I still loved it but I didn’t necessarily need that over the top horrific ending. But it is a horror book and it showed the desperation of people and the terrible things they’re willing to do. So that’s why I still loved it!

@kevin.jenkins 9 месяцев назад

WOOO LET’S GO IAN! Reading a lot of my favs lately and soon. Light Bringer is shaping up to be my book of the year and man, that ending🥲 Pet Sematary is also one of my favorites for spooky season and for King, so much so that I have a tattoo for it, so I’ll be looking forward to your thoughts, cuz boy, is it depressing😂 and The Shining too! probably my third favorite King and even better than Pet Sematary in my opinion. Also glad to see you’re gonna read Swan Song. I’m part of the crowd that thinks it’s better than The Stand. Would also recommend Boy’s Life by McCammon; it’s so King-coded with the small town coming of age, wrapped into a murder mystery. One of my favorite books ever. And that Joe Abercrombie guy is pretty good, too. Wisdom of Crowds was my favorite in Age of Madness so hopefully it’ll crack that five star for you🔥

@iangubeli 9 месяцев назад

Love this comment so much!! Excited to get into some of these reads, and finish some of these series. I think Wisdom of Crowds will blow my mind. Abercrombie never disappoints! Swan Song so far is INSANE!! Way more exciting beginning than The Stand! Pet Semetary was AWESOME!! Loved every second!

15 books is not bad at all. Very impressive actually and you completed the Harry Potter which is something I can’t do lmao.

@carlabuxton8251 8 месяцев назад

I'm so glad to see you reading Stephen King. I've been reading him since high school and have been enjoying reliving his books thru your eyes! I read the stand before they came out with the complete and uncut version so had to go read that as well. As far as I'm aware, I've read all of his unless there's something out there digitally I've missed. Working on Holly now. Can't wait to see your take on Pet Sematary. Also loved Swan Song.

@iangubeli 8 месяцев назад

The Stand was so freaking good! Compared to Swan Song, I think it still holds out better. McCammon did a very good job with paying homage to King, but there is just something about The Stand that blew my mind! And Pet Semetary😳…holy crap!!

I hope to love Red Rising. I just find it in a thrift store for $3, but just book #1. I want to read all of them, but I have to read my 50+ physical book tbr I have... especially, since I just filmed another 20+ book haul video that is being posted the 22nd of this month. The thrift stores have been so good here lately! Also, you should read Christine by Stephen King. There is the classic King profanity, but that was my favorite movie since I was around 8, and also one of my favorite books. I read it for the first time last year, and love it as much as the movie! I think because I'm a car/truck person, I understood the bond that you can have with vehicles. (My truck is my example. 😂)

Sexual content just seems unnecessary to me as a plot device. It takes away from the overall feel of a novel for me. I think sexual stuff in general is a “behind closed doors” type of thing. It’s private. I don’t know, maybe I’m a prude, but I prefer no sexual stuff in my books!
