    Honestly I could watch you for hours your videos are so phenomenal! And so interesting and inspiring! Most of the books you read sound so interesting! And it’s rare that I watch a booktuber who reads so many books I’m interested in even if it’s something I’ve never heard of before!

    I shrieked with joy when I read 11/22/63 and got to the IT crossover chapter. The former ended up joining the latter as my two favorite King novels of all time.

    I can't tell you how MUCH FUN it is to watch you read 11/22/63! It is one of my favorite books of all time. And it was my first Stephen King novel. I avoided him because I thought he did only horror, and horror is not my thing. Boy, was I wrong! I predict 11/22/63 will be near the top for you! I plan on reading "The Stand" and "Fairy Tale" next, both of which I own. I recently subscribed for many reasons, but what clinched it was your "Convince Me to Read Your Favorite Book" video-bonus that it was filmed close to where I live! Hope you feel better soon. I'm a middle-aged female fan of both you and Ashlynn. Thanks for bringing joy to Booktube!

    I started reading King with the Stand in sixth grade and haven't stopped since. i love his bigger books the most and 11/22/63 is one of the best. During the pandemmie, I started reading all of his books in publication order and just finished You Like It Darker. Time to reread some of his stuff again.

    @meikusje 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    You talking about 'running into' characters from IT in 11/22/63 made me think of Paul Tremblay's Disappearance at Devil's Rock and Survivor Song. Idk if those are really up your alley (Tremblay's work can be a bit love it or hate it), but they have a similar situation with recurring characters, and I didn't know that when I read them, and I enjoyed it so much! I read Survivor Song first, and then Disappearance at Devil's Rock it took me quite a while to put two and two together, haha, but when I realized it, I was so much more invested. So anyway, maybe you'd enjoy those as well. Hope you're feeling better, and if not, you'll feel better soon!

  • @atc35012
    @atc35012 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I read "It" by Stephen King last year and I loved the characters. I loved everything but It himself. I thought the book was beautifully written and could have been a second "Stand by me" if it wasn't for the clown. Ben is my favorite character.
    The funny thing is when I was a kid my mom read "It" and I found my copy of the book at a used book store and it's same edition and cover my mom had years ago. I had to tape the cover back together because the cover of the book was ripping off. The book is old.

    I just finished Final Girls the other day and I also enjoyed it. I loved how Sager jumped right into the story and never let it fall. This was only my second book by him to read and I am looking forward to reading more for sure. The first I read was Home Before Dark. I would like to read more so what would you recommend I read next? I love watching you and your wife's channels and love your enthusiasm and love for each other and your viewers 💕 Because of you two, I have also read Red Rising and will continue with that series also. Keep up the great content.

    Omg!! I was wondering when you were going to that book. “It” is my favorite bc of the vibe, friendship, music . And then reading 11-22-63, became my next favorite. I love how he brings beloved characters back into his books. I hope you’re feeling better and can’t wait for your next vlog❤❤

    I'm so super happy you're finally picking up 11/22/63!!! I always see it on your shelf and keep saying to myself, 'come on read it! pick it up!!.' lol. I read that book in February this year, rated it 6 stars and it is hands down my favorite book I've ever read. I think about those characters so often. It was also my first Stephan King book. I have not read IT yet but it's on my tbr for this year, but I do know the story so when I read that George was going to Derry and I was able to match up things that happened in IT to what was being told in this book, oh boy, I got so excited. I can't wait to hear your thoughts about it in your wrap up!

    I am also very ill and off work, so I'm planning on starting The Eyes of the Dragon tonight! I hope you're feeling better now and enjoyed the rest of 11.22.63 :))
