I called it quits at the 42% mark and skimmed the ending. I wasn’t tempted to go back and finish reading the rest of it. It doesn’t really seem necessary to understand the ending. It just means I missed a few details, but by the 42% mark I’d pretty much stopped caring. Vic was somewhat interesting...
She thought of mothering, which was really another word for being present and caring what happened to someone. - page 254 The sky was the color of a migraine. - page 457 This book. Wow. I loved it, though it was so creepy that I don't know that it sounds right to say that. Kate Mulgrew's narr...
Read Harder Challenge Item: A Horror BookI think the experience I had with this book is just the sort of thing reading challenges that push you to read "outside your comfort zone" hope will happen. That is to say, I greatly enjoyed this read even though it is outside my preferred genres. I don't rea...
Please note that I gave this book 3.5 stars. However, Goodreads does not allow half stars so I rounded it up to 4 stars. Wish that I could say anything more about this book besides it being okay. There really was a lot of fat that should have been trimmed out of this book. There are just pages and p...

The difference is when someone says he can keep the bad things away, a child believes him.” Charles Talent Manx with his silver hammer.Some people are born with bad wiring.

This book was recommended by a good friend and I enjoy thrillers so I figured I'd give it a shot. I picked up the audio book from my local library and jumped in. It didn't grab me right away but I think that may have had more to do with the narration than the story. Ms. Mulgrew was fantastic for ...
I really loved this book. I listened to the audio so the changing POV was a little confusing at first. But the story hooked me fairly quickly. It was very hard to stop listening. Kate Mulgrew was an amazing choice for the narrator. I was a litte bummed that it wasn't very creepy because Heart Shape...
I held off on a review of this book for a bit for a couple of reasons, one I fully wanted to digest what I'd read, and second my brother hadn't finished reading it. C'mon Carl get your head in the game. Horror isn't a genre I read often because I'm a big sissy. This book however is my second Joe Hil...
My review and an extended sample of the audiobook are posted at Hotlistens.com. This is my first book by Joe Hill. I can say that I’m impressed. He does his father (Stephen King) proud. I got excited about this book when I read the review by TheGeekyBlogger last year. So when I push myself to read...
This novel blew me away. The audiobook version is nearly twenty hours long. I consumed it in a little under four days. I couldn't stop. I WANTED to stop but I just couldn't make myself. I wanted to stop because this is a book drenched in sadness, fear and sacrifice. I was living in the shadow of...
