I've never read anything by him either! But I love that idea that art should be feeding life, feeding the actual living we do and not the other way around. I needed to hear that today! PS Yesss excited to see Witches leading the poll currently! It's very literary and dreamy and I think you'd like it!
Hurray, I'm glad you're enjoying it!! Yes the prose if *chef's kiss*. I remember picking it up in the book store and reading the first page ("I don't remember times or dates, I don't know when I was born because I was born like the mountain was, go ask the mountain when it was born") and I was like, yes, I am definitely buying this
I love thriller/horror books, but surprisingly I have not read any Stephen King books. I think it may have to do with the fact that I have seen alot of the movies that came about from the books. I know I should still read them cause books are usually better than the movies, but I like not knowing what is gonna happen in a book.
Also I am in the same situation as you. My library books were all ready at the same time and what I started before I had to put a pause on and now I’m reading like 8 books 🙈

I got like 10 pages into Witches last night before bed and omg. If it wasn’t a library book I’d be underlining!

THAT’S THE LINE!!! I read it twice. And it’s the second line I think. Incredible. Thanks again! 💜
It's wild -- it seems like so many people haven't read him! And yes, thank you for the recc! I cannot wait to read it.

Haha yep! It’s so stressful! And I totally get why you wouldn’t read them, considering you’ve already seen the movies.
Highly recommend On Writing though!!
I will have to check it out!
Haven't read the Stephen King memoir yet, but, in my experience, art enriches life and life enriches art.
Oh absolutely! Can’t have one without the other.
