I love this book series. The only down side was that the narrator for certain characters in the story has changed. Venessa Dose not sound the way she should and neither does raxtus!

Historia
The master at his scarifying best! From heart-pounding terror to the eeriest of whimsy - tales from the outer limits of one of the greatest imaginations of our time! Trucks that punish and beautiful teen demons who seduce a young man to massacre; curses whose malevolence grows through the years; obscene presences and angels of grace - here, indeed, is a night-blooming bouquet of chills and thrills.

Steven King I hope you read this
Revisado: 07-19-20
King broke the rules of writing and here's why.
In the writing universe you can create whatever rules you like but once they are created they must be followed.
The problem comes from the third short story, If It Bleeds. Holli is not able to hurl herself at ondowski and push him into the elevator shaft with out simultaneously falling into the elevator shaft from her inertia. Also you can't give ondowski superhuman speed and reflexes and not let him use those to avoid the clumsy sleuth. When I read Misery you spoke of this principle when Annie Wilkes refuses to believe the bs story Paul makes up the first time.
There comes a time when every great writer, artist, performer ect. begins their downfall and this is Steven King's fall. I'm sorry to announce this because King was a fantastic writer but seems to be falling with his growing age.

Shapiro the ultimate fact checking machine and liberal destroyer. What a delightful new side to Shapiro. I couldn't have imagined the sweet side of shapiro however after this listen my views of him are vastly changed. His careful view of history mixed with religious insight makes this book stand above others.

Historia
Stephen King returns to the characters and territory of one of his most popular novels ever, The Shining, in this instantly riveting novel about the now middle-aged Dan Torrance (the boy protagonist of The Shining) and the very special 12-year-old girl he must save from a tribe of murderous paranormals. This is an epic war between good and evil, a gory, glorious story that will thrill the millions of hyper-devoted fans of The Shining and wildly satisfy anyone new to the territory of this icon in the King canon.

An amazing extention to the shining
Revisado: 05-30-20
Hello, other Steven King fans this hot little extension to the shining is great! You'll want to finish this in one go. I have quite figured out what king means by "shining" however this book and the Shining are a great read together. I have a premonition that King is exploring and possible comparing childhood purity with its immortality to the more thought of immortality as in actual age extension to impossible lengths.

Historia
Man’s Search for Meaning is the chilling yet inspirational story of Viktor Frankl’s struggle to hold on to hope during the unspeakable horrors of his years as a prisoner in Nazi concentration camps. Between 1942 and 1945 Frankl labored in four different camps, including Auschwitz, while his parents, brother, and pregnant wife perished. Based on his own experience and the experiences of those he treated in his practice, Frankl argues that we cannot avoid suffering, but we can choose how to cope with it, find meaning in it, and move forward with renewed purpose.

Critic of those who read Frankel
Revisado: 05-30-20
I never understood what was meant by this work and the obsession women seem to have with it. My eyes are open now and I understand what they were reaching at, however, there's one thing most people fail to recognize when they read this book.
The majority of popular Ideas taken from this book are not Frankel's and never have been. The most popular being that (if one has a why he can bear almost any how.) This is a Nietzsche idea and Frankel credits Nietzsche in the book. This is only one example of at least three others I can think of. Its wrong of readers to misconstrue this work yet time and time again I've heard it done by teachers, mentors, and friends. Please realize were the real power of Frankel's work comes from.

Historia
Leland Gaunt opens a new shop in Castle Rock called Needful Things. Anyone who enters his store finds the object of his or her lifelong dreams and desires: a prized baseball card, a healing amulet. In addition to a token payment, Gaunt requests that each person perform a little "deed", usually a seemingly innocent prank played on someone else from town. These practical jokes cascade out of control, and soon the entire town is doing battle with itself. Only Sheriff Alan Pangborn suspects that Gaunt is behind the population's increasingly violent behavior.

The devil himself is set up in a new town of naïve people. He's cunning and has been tricking people since the beginning. I would not recommend this book to anyone who is religious. Enough said

I never knew I could hate a character so much but ANNIE is the queen of bad bitches in todays literature. I hate her with such a gusto as I never dreamed of. Annie tops even Dolores Umbridge.... Yes I know it is a shock but it is true. Annie is way worse. Do not skip this one.

Historia
A predecessor to such monumental works such as Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov, Notes From Underground represents a turning point in Dostoyevsky's writing towards the more political side.
In this work, we follow the unnamed narrator of the story, who, disillusioned by the oppression and corruption of the society in which he lives, withdraws from that society into the underground.
