    Just finished 'Salem's Lot by Stephen King. It was enjoyable and I can see it's influence on newer works of horror.

    Up next is Life Ceremony by Sayaka Murata and Hail Mary by Andy Weir.

    Like any creator that has a huge body of work, there are gonna be hits and misses. I haven't read much of his older stuff, but I'm currently reading 'Salems Lot. I wouldn't say it's knocked me over, but I am enjoying it.

    I have also read the Shining and Dr. Sleep and I enjoyed those immensely. Of his more recent stuff, I really like the Holly Gibney character and her arc in various novels and short stories.

    You can start with "If it Bleeds", it's an anthology of short stories, the last of which is a Holly Gibney story.

    I didn't care for "Sleeping Beauties", which he co-authored with his son Owen.

    It's not exactly scary but has great Fall and Halloween vibes. It was a great witch story. Fair warning - there's quite a bit of torture if you're squeamish about that sort of thing. Reading about Puritans can also be annoying.

    The article you linked, if you can call it an article, is all headline. And the headline starts with "Stein says..."

    Rather than focus on what a politician says, I'd rather consider their actions and choices. Like choosing to go to Russia with a bunch of treasonous fucks and sit across the table from an evil despot.

    I just read Octavia Butler's "Parable of the Sower" and I can't believe it took me until now to read it.

    I really loved it and the sequel as well. They are amongst some of the best books I've read.

    The use of the "Make America Great Again" motto by a fascist politician was the cherry on top for me <chef's kiss>.

    Yes, they saved my feet. I swear by them. The next best thing to getting custom $200+ orthotics from a foot doctor. I own several pairs. Even my casual shoes have them inside.
