(page 22 of 266)
""The Camp at Cutthroat Lake": 5/5 - saturated with a sense of lurking dread, this story relies on the symbolism of an otherwise innocuous fishing trip, and the subtle character development doled out sparingly across only a few pages. Impeccable pacing and foreshadowing, thought-provoking and vivid." — Jan 12, 2026 02:44PM

Jeff’s Notes & Highlights

Red Rabbit by Alex Grecian

1 note & 1 highlight

The sun was high in the sky and the campfire had died. The prairie was bathed in light, pinpricks of red and yellow wildflowers bright against the green grass.

Grecian doesn't overdo his imagery, but it's vivid and lyrical when he wants it to be.

“Julia laughs—one of the greatest sounds he’s ever encountered—and he can’t remember the last time he heard it. Beautiful but also crushing to experience. Like a secret window into the person he used to know.”
― Blake Crouch, Recursion

“He is always looking back, living more in memories than the present, often altering them to make them prettier. To make them perfect. Nostalgia is as much an analgesic for him as alcohol.”
― Blake Crouch, Recursion

“Just find one of those poor sad sacks who go scurrying around the halls like criminals before the home-room bell and walk it right to him. And sometimes they do get killed, in every important way except the physical; sometimes they find something to hold onto and they survive. Arnie had me.”
― Stephen King, Christine

“You can't stop them. Some people don't care if a girl cries, or a tiger dies. They have rules. I did what I had to and we survived.”
