King is a bit of an acquired taste, IMO. Though I will say he might be the most prolific writer who can actually delve into the psychology of characters from all walks of life. He’s basically a savant when it comes to writing the meticulous analyses of each of his character’s minds. They seem so fully formed and alive, even side characters. I love a lot of his books. But despite this, I tire of King as well. I can read him for a bit then I’m good for a straight decade before I do another round. His stuff is heavy and, at times, oddly paced.

My husband grew up in poverty, but fortunately never suffered anything more. Poverty is bad enough.

I once tried to get him to watch a gritty film about a dude who lost his hearing. And my husband couldn’t take more than 40 minutes. He kept saying “it’s too real.”

I’ll never get him to read a book 😆

🤣🤣🤣 maybe we should all feel that way

I will still never, ever get over 50 Shades. Utter garbage in every way, and it outsold Harry Potter in paperback. I think this says something profoundly negative about our society.
