    I am curious but not curious enough to actually get it 😂 It does have a cool premise though, it should be right up my alley lol but after your review, I think Id have the same complaints. Great review!

    Love your reviews. I agree with you with Stephen King, he's good with both Horror and Crime. He does have a hit or miss with his endings. But I'm glad you enjoyed it.

      Yeah it was a good read!! I would have liked the ending to be a little more, well just more lol but it is what it is

    You are out of the reading slump- YAY!.
    I absolutely loved Later by Stephen King- gritty, fast- paced, suspenseful although it had a weird reveal at the end which kind of felt out of place.
    🖤🤍👻 I wasn't a fan of druggie Liz though. Later was more of a crime story as opposed to a full blown horror. It wasn't perfect but it read okay. I gave it a 4 star rating as well.

      Great minds think alike!!! Yeah I just felt like it ended roo abruptly and then the reveal added nothing, I didn't get the point! But you're right, it was still a fun read!!

      @@MarieMcWilliams Tbh a part of me feels like in some of his current books he is going along the same vein as his son with the whole incest incorporation plotline. (Such as Joe Hills Heart Shaped Box). It seems rather unnecessary in my opinion.

      @@Books_BrewsandBeyond I'm ok with it being in a book if it's part of the plot or development but this felt so random and added nothing at all to the story. I don't really get why it was even in it

      Why thank you!! I do love a band tee lol. It's a fairly common trope but I think it's done in an original enough way.
