- My review of A. M. Homes's The End of Alice, a notoriously nasty book about the correspondence between an incarcerated pedophile and a young woman with similarly illicit tastes, a book which boldly goes where few others dare.😨

OMG. I have never squirmed so much reading a book. I thought about burning it and saying pagan chants to cleanse myself numerous times during the reading. However....I was hooked and as I got to the last two chapters I couldn't devour the pages fast enough. What a wild freaking ride this one was. Never would have heard of it if you hadn't done a review. Thanks. I think.
Oh wow, I'm glad I was able to turn someone onto a book! :D Yeah, this was a wild ride for sure, but a weirdly engrossing one. Glad you enjoyed it! :)
Rick Harsch's reaction and description to the first ten pages of your self-proclaimed magnum opus has brought me to your eyrie, Mr. Falcon. And I loved this book and agree that it is one of the best examples of an unreliable narrator.
Glad to have you along for the ride! ;)
You're so incredibly informative! Your channel should be bigger. A front-facing light source and an external microphone would do a lot for your video quality. You should do it; your reviews deserve it. Keep it up, I learn so much.
Thanks so much, and thanks for the suggestions! I've heard similar things about the light source. I really do need to do something about that...🤔
Great review. Definitely going to have to try this one, the combination of funny, extremely dark, and then emotional sounds like it will be a great read.
It's definitely a rollercoaster, for sure! :)
Just discovered your channel, I'm fairly new to booktube but i really enjoy your way of going into reviewing, very concise and well formulated. Subbed! Doing great man
Thank you! Glad you're enjoying the content! :)
PLEASE DO MORE horror books!
I’m having a hard time getting into this one, you have inspired me to try again.
I do have some horror books on the tbr. Kinda saving them for October, but they will be forthcoming! :)
"Maybe I'm just a sick bastard, but..." From one sick bastard to another, great review.
Thnx! 😅
You gotta read Tampa by Alissa Nutting if you haven't already, I had a similar experience reading that! Definitely want to check this one out too
Yeah, I actually have that book! Always down for some more staring into the abyss! XD
Sybil was very disturbing but still an interesting story
I'll have to give that a look then. ;)
A 'Disturbing Book Iceberg' brought me to *The End of Alice* including the book that I'm currently reading *Tampa by Alissa Nutting* half way done with the book, and... I'm disturbed.
I'm be reading The End of Alice soon, including *Blood Meridian*
I've got Tampa on the tbr! :D
I am sure you must have read A Clockwork Orange
I actually have not, but I've meant to for a while now. Some day, very likely.
