's review

it was amazing

1. Mr. Harrigan's Phone: ⭐⭐⭐⭐�
2. The Life of Chuck: ⭐⭐⭐⭐�
3. If It Bleeds: ⭐⭐⭐⭐�
4. Rat: ⭐⭐⭐⭐�

That's how you do, Sai King!



If It Bleeds is easily one of the most well-rounded collections I have ever read.



This was well worth the wait. Releasing at the perfect time too, considering the themes captured within these haunting tales.



I could pretend I will write more at some point, but y'all know that's...



Original:

IT IS TIME!!!!



COVER REVEAL HAS ME LIKE...



Earlier:

...receives book recommendation...





Is this for real?
This seems too good to be true?
Does the universe love me this much?

Benedikt  Currently reading this and having a blast after finishing story 2!!!


megs_bookrack Benedikt (Benesbookblast) wrote: "Currently reading this and having a blast after finishing story 2!!!" Wasn't the second story crazy, considering what is currently going on in the world. I read it right at the start of quarantine in my area and was like....WHAT IS HAPPENING!?!?


Benedikt  Indeed. It was like King predicted a gospel of the end of days 😂 I also really liked the different stages of life that were complited in the book and dealing with dead and grief


megs_bookrack Benedikt (Benesbookblast) wrote: "Indeed.

I always enjoy his writings on grief/dealing with grief/death, etc. So good.
