I just got some new shoes - Brooks, which I've never tried before. They felt amazing at the store and I'm looking forward to my first run in them!

I never want to see those 2 words used together ever again.

Another win for greed, capitalism and the American way!

Just finished 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King. It was enjoyable and I can see it's influence on newer works of horror.

Up next is Life Ceremony by Sayaka Murata and Hail Mary by Andy Weir.

Like any creator that has a huge body of work, there are gonna be hits and misses. I haven't read much of his older stuff, but I'm currently reading 'Salems Lot. I wouldn't say it's knocked me over, but I am enjoying it.

I have also read the Shining and Dr. Sleep and I enjoyed those immensely. Of his more recent stuff, I really like the Holly Gibney character and her arc in various novels and short stories.

You can start with "If it Bleeds", it's an anthology of short stories, the last of which is a Holly Gibney story.

I didn't care for "Sleeping Beauties", which he co-authored with his son Owen.

"low-information" is a new one for me.

It's not exactly scary but has great Fall and Halloween vibes. It was a great witch story. Fair warning - there's quite a bit of torture if you're squeamish about that sort of thing. Reading about Puritans can also be annoying.
