    AHHH!! CUJO!! My favourite King book! I hope you love it too... You know what blows me away is that I've heard Stephen King said in an interview that he has no recollection of writing his books from the 80's because of his heavy drinking & drug use. lol.. Like, that's crazy to me because he did some of his best work in that decade imo.

      He talks about that in his book On Writing too. Apparently he loves that book and is really sad he doesn’t remember writing it.

    I love the endpapers on your wife’s books! There’s a new edition of Pride and Prejudice with illustrations and handwritten letters from the novel. BTW - read Pride and Prejudice! 😊

    I'm so happy that the Emily Wilde book made it in to the stack! It was also signed by Heather Fawcett* (the author) lol it is a trilogy with the second book recently released, absolutely amazing stories. I am jealous your wife has a signed copy!

    So I'm from Sudan-Khartoum, when the war started last April, we just ran, we left a huge amount of books may be thousands, my father is a vivid reader start collecting them since seventies, So what I'm saying there is no time to save books when there is a gun toward your head, and bomb in your backyard, you just save your family life...i hope no one go through this ever, and may all your books remain safe.

    Started following your channel 2 weeks ago and just wanted to pop in and say hi! We have a TON of favorite/liked books in common and I’ve really enjoyed your content so far. Babel is on my TBR as well, and these editions are beautiful! Happy reading! 😊

    I honestly wouldn't have expected any king books from you but certainly welcome, i just started reading a few years ago myself and king has made a place in my collection (his books hands down takes up the most space on my shelves)

    I haven’t read the Poppy War trilogy but still loved Babel! I’m also an academic that studied in Cambridge one summer and have read and understood the translation and betrayal quote 😂

    6:15 your wife and I had the exact same experience with Fourth Wing. I happened to be at Target on release day, saw a few folks online raving about it and thought “Eh, it looks cool at least if I don’t like it” 😂
    I loved it and Iron Flame!

    I keep all of my favourites on a separate shelf, therefore making them easier to save. As an autistic person, I also have a small collection of books about autism; some I’ve read and some I will soon. If I had 20 seconds, I’d grab a box and dump that entire bookshelf into it.😂
    Also, I live near Barrie so hello from a fellow Ontarian.

    What’s your first instinct…
    Holly, Needful Things, Fairy Tale or The Bachman Books (Rage, The Long Walk, Roadwork and The Running Man)?

    • @booksaresick

      I think I’d have to go Bachman books but I do love fairytale!

    8:04 Start with the poppy war or Yellowface. All her books are very different. I couldn't get into Babel (it’s like a textbook) but devoured Yellowface and am speeding through the poppy war. I see R F Kuang next week and am hoping to get my books signed!

    Just read Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Faeries last week, and it was so good! Such a fun + charming story. Also, my husband read Fourth Wing per my recommendation and enjoyed it, but he is enjoying Throne of Glass more (he hasn't tried ACOTAR yet).

  • @hardt92
    @hardt92 Před 4 měsíci

    I think the idea behind the two Stephen King photos on the back are meant to show how he looked when he started the Dark Tower and him when he finished it. Showing that he'd been writing it for most of his life (at that point).
