Had a pretty busy work week, hardly got time to read anything. So still on The Sunlit Man by Brandon Sanderson.

What about all of you? What have you been reading or listening to lately?

I started listening to Stephen King’s IT.

I have read and listened a number of his books, but never IT. I am only three chapters into to it and so far It is King at the top of his game.

    There is something... cozy?... about reading IT. Not because there is anything cozy about the story, but there is something about his stream-of-consciousness writing style and approach to horror that satisfies, but only if you're into that style of narration, and it's one of those books you have to be content to hang out with, cause you're gonna spend a long time with it.

    Absolutely. When it was published King was the reigning king oh horror
