Gripping as always
Another brilliant novel from SK, have not read the shining, although watched it many years ago, so knew the main character already. Kinda want to read the shining now though. I also loved the reference in here that is in his DT series. There are other worlds than these. Loved it, a must read if you like SK and horror/supernatural books

One of my best reads in 2019!
If you haven't read this book, or can only refer it to the movie... Go read this now!
From the minute I started reading I could not stop. Such a light hearted yet gripping book about teenagers with CF. I learned so much terminology that goes with CF too. There was tears and laughter... It was a beautiful read.

Rowling does it best!
Ah... I do love the Harry Potter books! I read this one when I was a teen, then recently re-read it to my own children - and it was every bit as great to read it now (as a thirty-something year old adult) as it was originally. That in itself is testament to Rowling's ability to spin a compelling yarn, and her characterisation is wonderful. No wonder we all love it so much...

I'm not sure what I was expecting out of this book, but it wasn't what I was thinking it was going to be. It was interesting, and I did like it, more or less. I liked it a lot more right after I read it, but thinking back now... It wasn't that great. I'll still definitely read the sequel, because I want to know what happens next, well, and I got the book for $3 at Barnes and Noble.

Never read a memoir type book before, but now I think I will get more. This book was both sad and hilarious at the same time. There was a few lines in there and moments where I laughed out loud and had to re-read because I thought it was hilarious. Now, that being said, most of the book was quite sad (to the person reading it) I mean I don't think she found her life to be upsetting until she got old enough to know better, but man, that was an awesome read.

Mike (8 KP) rated The Illustrated Eric (Discworld, #9) in Books

I read this illustrated version, as I'd only previously read the text version. It seemed shorter, and some parts appeared incomplete or not fully explained, I now need to read the text version again! The illustrations are quite lavish, but Kirby has difficulty drawing Death's head as it seems to be a weird shape, almost as if he has another head behind the skull under his cloak. Still worth a read, but it's not one of Sir Terry's best

"Once there was a tree...and she loved a little boy."
The most heartwarming, loving story ever written. I grew up having this book read to me, then I read it over and over to myself, and now I read it to all the littles in my life. Life just makes more sense with this book in it. It's a love story to nature, a lesson on kindness and selfishness, and just an overall amazing story. Love.
