Still reading Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King. I am a little over 4/7th of the book (almost 400 pages out of 700 pages). The book wasn’t what I thought it was. It isn’t about the world after all the women fell asleep, it’s about when they stated to fall asleep, with some supernatural stuff mixed in, which I think is present in most of King’s books.
I am enjoying the book, and going to read more of his work. Maybe not right after this though.
What about you all? What are you guys reading?
I’m re-reading Never Let Me Go by Ishiguro. Such a fantastic book, but I haven’t really enjoyed his other works sadly
Remains of the Day is maybe my favorite book of all time. Never Let Me Go was fine but paled in comparison. I wanted to like it a lot more than I did. I’m glad you’re liking it. I think RotD set up some unrealistic expectations.
Fair enough. I haven’t read that one because the idea just didn’t grab me from the synopsis. I’m taking you recommend it?
It’s incredible. Probably the most “human” book I’ve ever read in my life. It sounds boring but I was absolutely enthralled with this old butler taking a road trip from the first 3 pages. There’s a bit of unreliable narration and a lot of nuance to the writing. The prose is beautiful and the characters are incredibly memorable and amazing.
