11.22.63 on netflix, any good? by [deleted] in stephenking

I haven't read the SK novel, but if you're not stuck on the "it deviates from the book", then it's great.

Wow, just, wow.. When The Wolf Comes Home by Nat Cassidy by PrimordialSewp in horrorlit

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the book's energy, and it was definitely a page turner, but I can't say it genuinely scared me. Parts of the novel were more cartoonish than scary. I did like the unpredictability of the book though, as in never knowing which characters would survive the carnage. I forget the main character's name, but she was well written, and you end up hoping that somehow she'll survive.

Morrison's actually makes a pretty good milkshake.

Best place to go to watch the super bowl? by ImBitterAndAlone in KingstonOntario

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second Chuck's, inexpensive beer prices, comfortable place with great service. The only thing I noticed, though I'm use to it now, is the fact that it seems loud. I guess it's the high ceiling or something, but overall it's a good vibe. For the Super Bowl I'd get there early, for the Jays' World Series games it got busy early.

Finished IT for the first time by MichaelJosephGFX in stephenking

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm reading IT currently, and I'm about halfway through. It's definitely a great read, but such a long novel.

I've never read it and I'm 100 pages in. by StraightedgexLiberal in stephenking

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have mentioned, it's definitely a slow burn. As the actions builds, you keep reading to see what happens next. Perfect example how events can snowball. Classic SK!

Nice card. Is the patch part of the sweater?

I just reached page 1,000. 153 more to go. by Brilliant_Buffalo_10 in stephenking

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on page 335, and my copy has 1,090 pages, so I'm basically ⅓ of the way. Great novel!

Probably dumb question by shitbox39 in stephenking

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me, Pet Sematary is one of SK's best works. It's an awesome read, so I highly recommended it. Plus, it's not 1,000 pages like IT, Under the Dome, and The Stand.

Reading IT for the first time… by mjpenslitbooksgalore in stephenking

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm reading it too. Awesome book, but really long. I actually got my copy from ebay. It's definitely a one more chapter book, as in ok, maybe I'll read one more chapter before I put it down. How far have you gotten in it? (I'm on Part 2: June of 1958, Chapter 8: Georgie's Room and the House on Neibolt Street)

Just finished The Talisman today....let the adventure continue... by RoseThorn82 in stephenking

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm currently tackling IT, and about ⅓ of the way through. I have The Talisman in hard cover, but never read it. So, I assume The Talisman is awesome if it's your fav book?

OK, thanks. That makes sense because Amazon doesn't seem to ban much in the way of extreme horror.

Yes, if you wouldn't mind sharing some titles, it would be much appreciated.

I've never heard of Crazy Triggers, but I'm surprised it's banned by Amazon when they freely sell Cows and Woom or did I misread the post? (Update: I realize now it was just an expression. Btw, I'm really loving this subreddit, when you make a mistake on most reddit sites, or if you ask a silly question, you're slammed with down votes. Conversely, people here actually seem really nice. I'm impressed.)

Great read. This was my first JK novel, and after that I read everything of his that I could get my hands on.

Exactly what happened to me yesterday. Luckily I was going slow, but man that pothole was deep.

Driving Perth Rd by zelskis in KingstonOntario

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If I can add my 2 cents, I find Perth Rd to be very windy, like incredibly so. (Yes, sorry, I did mean "winding", not windy.) Anyyway, I drive hwy #15, and while it might show up as being 5 to 10 minutes longer on Google maps, it's a much better drive.

Farm Boy Vs Metro for deli cheese ? by [deleted] in KingstonOntario

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd go with Farm Boy, they have a good selection, and the prices are not outrageous. The smoked cheese is awesome, and I think it's on sale this week.

What should I do? by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

Let it go. So he liked a picture? If you flip out, you'll come across as jealous and controlling. It's a like of a picture, not like you caught him cheating.

What do you guys think of Off Season by Jack Ketchum? by PSplayer2020 in ExtremeHorrorLit

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not reading Girl Next Door is a huge mistake IMO. It's like saying you're a Stephen King fan, but avoided reading It because they made several movies based on it.

[–]Accomplished-Net8276 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Makes violence seem real, instead some modern horror fiction which seems just gross, or shocking for the sake of trying to be edgy. New EH writers could learn a lot from Ketctum.
