3 popular books I’d like to read Shawshank, December 14, 2020December 14, 2020 There’s so many books that I’d like to read. If you looked at my hand written list you probably wouldn’t know where to start. Like I said, there’s so many that I want to read, I just picked 3 to talk about this fine morning The Troop by Nick Cutter. The Troop follows a group of Boy Scouts that have to battle tapeworms, and danger from within. Seems like an amazing physiological thriller. I’ve never had a book “scare me” before. Maybe this one will scare me! The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E Schwab. The whole premise of this book interested me as soon as I read about it. An 18th century woman makes a deal with the devil to live forever, but is cursed to have no one remember her. Until someone does. Sounds interesting, doesn’t it? The Sundown Motel by Simone St. James. Murder mystery in the 80s? Sure! I loves me a murder mystery for sure! I’ve ready it’s part mystery, and part ghost story. I actually think in one of the horror lists Crystal has sent me, that it was on there, and the cover caught my eye. Honorable mention: Pine by Francine Toon. Described as a modern gothic horror. Sounds like I’d like it! So there you have it 3 popular books I’d like to read! Lockup Library blogbloggerbookbook loverbook memebooksjournaltalking about books
