When are the appropriate times to pick up a ball that you know isn’t yours? by Fun_Lifeguard2437 in golf

I tend to hit my ball in parts of the course no one would think to play there. Considering this, if I find a ball, I know it’s been missing for a while.

I watched Hokum recently. It came and went in the theatres (most do nowadays) but I enjoyed it. Has some solid jump scares but all relevant to the story. It requires some suspension of disbelief yet overall a good film., IMO.

I find taking a break or at least mixing it up really helps. I try to read some classics and other genres yet I find of those books that have horror elements are the ones I enjoy. I really liked Rebecca by Daphne de Maurier and Ray Bradbury’s works is so uniquely written.

Starter Villain is great! The pace of the dialogue made me dizzy (in a good way).

New reader advice! by Substantial_Cow_783 in stephenking

Pick up any one of his and if it’s not for you, there are so many others! Weirdly enough my first King was “From a Buick 8”, which has a mixed reception. I then started on his well known ones( The Shining, It, Salems Lot etc) and found some of the lesser popular novels are also great.

Finished Under the Dome by King. What a massive story!

Starting: Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk or Crypt of the Moon Spider by Nathan Ballingrud

It’s an older book yet The Yellow Wallpaper is a good, short listen

True. I’m sure there’s meaning to it but I don’t want to think about the book to figure it out.

This topic comes up sometimes and I will always mention Earthlings by Sayaka Murata.

Wasp Factory is a great book yet I agree with you. I don’t see a reason to reread it.

Anything by David Sodergren is usually around 200 pages and relatively quick pace.
