    I can't believe the ebook Magnetic Aura isn't a hot topic. It's an incredible read

    In Cold Blood is a phenomenal book, I read it for a class in high school and have been wanting to reread it lately. I think you will really dig it

      Really good book, tho it feels Capote wandered off on too many tangents. By the back half I was skipping the pointless rambly chapters that had nothing to do with the main story.

    Wizard and Glass is my favorite Dark Tower book. It's perfect. It's King at his best. You don't need to be surprised by an ending, you only need to dread the inevitable.

    You should read Billy Summers (yes I will continue suggesting it even if I have to keep doing it until 2028)

    Can’t wait for you to read “Bird Box,” I really enjoyed it. I still haven’t watched the Netflix series or read the second book in the series but this book can stand on its own.

    I’m so glad you read Night by Elie Wiesel. I agree everyone should read it. Both my daughter and I read it. East of Eden is my favorite Steinbeck!!! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts! In Cold Blood is also a must read!!

  • @Ya5ker
    @Ya5ker 15 дней назад

    I really love the variety of books you go over on your channel, it's a bit of a heavy read but I'd suggest trying "One Step Away" by James Gabrian, insane book.

    The Jaunt! I’ve thought of that story every time I go to the airport. But i read it so long ago I couldn’t remember the name. That and The Long Walk have stayed with me the longest.

    I thought drawing of the three would definitely be my favorite dark tower book, and then books 3, 4, and 5 got progressively better for me. It's crazy how long that series is, and I wish it were longer.

    @steviepickles9174 19 дней назад

    Your Exorcist story has inspired me to recommend a horror movie. The Exorcism of Emily Rose. There is a moment that is nearly identical to your anecdote. But this one truly will chill your blood. I sometimes see it in my thoughts unprovoked and I haven’t seen the film in a decade.

  • @philippawood5047

    Try listening to the audiobook of Circe!! So much easier to get into, the narrator was lovely and made it easier for me to connect with the protagonist

    Just picked up a secondhand copy of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Very excited to read it. I imagine it’s more ‘real’ than the movie, even though there’s serious subjects/moments in the film too. But it will have to wait until I’ve worked my way through the 8 books already sitting on my coffee table. (Unless I, on a whim, decide to skip to queue and read it first! 🤔😁)

  • @DavidMadara

    I'm reading all SK in order of publication and just got to The Wastelands (Dark Tower 3). I thoroughly enjoyed The Drawing of the Three, so I'm looking forward to it!
    1980's King was legendary, and 1990's King is off to a great start; can't wait to get to Wizard and Glass, but I'm about a dozen books away from that one 😛

    I love the movie Breakfast At Tiffanys but haven’t read the book. I didn’t know it was written from the main male character’s perspective, makes me more interested in reading. 😂 omg The Exorcist cover is terrifying!

    • @biteofdog

      For Breakfast At Tiffanys, I liked the movie more than the book.

    I was not the biggest fan of Circe either. I only finished it because I had it on audiobook.

    If you're ever in the market for a heavy hitter real life story that will change your life it's Man's Search for Meaning by Victor Frankl. Beautiful, enlightening, difficult. A must read for any human I think. A treat to listen as always!

  • @nl3064
    @nl3064 19 дней назад

    I know most people prefer the book since it has a lot more than the stripped down movie version, but I personally prefer the movie of Breakfast at Tiffany's a lot more. As far as books go, the book for me is ok - for whatever reason I was bored more than anything - but the movie (which I saw first) I find much more charming.

    I recently bought Skeleton Crew and just finished reading The Mist. It was the first thing I’ve ever read by Stephen King. I’m not sure whether to read the rest of the book or go on to something like Pet Sematary or The Shining?

    In Cold Blood is a good book but has haunted me since I finished it. I don’t think it helped when I looked up pictures of the crime scene. Don’t do it. It makes the story even more chilling.

    Hey there! I’m reading a collection of short stories that are completely amazing, surreal, and bizarre: Beautiful Days by Zach Williams. It’s just come out and has received amazing reviews as well. PS - Capote writes very good short stories. “Miriam” is very disturbing!
