Seedling was interesting. Not much character background but very visceral and graphic. Interesting way of showing grief and literal wounds. The end was abrupt and so so scary.

First story was pretty good. Although I wanted more character development and it felt predictable and like other stories where woman finds out her father is a serial killer… idk why that’s a common story/plotline. But yay lesbians! Also why was she kicked out of the house at 9? I wish the backstory was explained more…

This is crazy bro

Is Mr. Bennett gonna be a creep…

This detective is so ANNOYING. I also hate Ms. baker? I like groundskeeper… rip

I like the main character the most out of any McFadden’s I’ve read. Still very annoying, repetitive and I’m not sure why I keep consuming all the Freida McFadden possible. The characters are whiny annoying and unlikable and their inner voice/motivations are AGGRAVATING! But still. I’m hooked.

Rip Mr. Zimmerlee. Blake is the worst. Is it gonna be like a DID thing? I hope not

What is she “hard of SMELLING!?” Cracked me up.
Blake is so annoying and so hateable and nothing has really happened but I can’t stop listening. Thank you Freida.

I like it so far and all the book references

It’s giving Mexican gothic so far. I hate miss baker. Can’t tell if the characters are bland or boring or good yet

“The spiritual bedrock of our values as a nation comes from Jerusalem. It is upon these ideals that the American republic was founded, and the unbreakable bond between the United States and Israel was formed.”
What. The. Fuck.
“…but an evil done in my name.”

“Because the first duty of racism, sexism, homophobia and so forth is the framing of who is human and who is not.” Pg 148

It’s not like good… but it’s intriguing.

I loved how he described his books as his children, his but not when they leave to enter schools, libraries and people’s imaginations.

PG. 58 “And we have a right to imagine ourselves as pharaohs, and then again the responsibility to ask if a pharaoh is even worthy of our needs, our dreams, our imagination”
His writing is spectacular. Beautiful!

What’s gonna happen to Sadie oh lord… also I’m learning so much about the Cuban missile crisis, Kennedys presidency and Anti/pro communism and Russian politics! How cool!

Something bad is gonna happen…

The book gets slower as the pre climax does in a usual Stephen King does… almost like we’re in a normal perfect world. I love this Suspense. How will he pull the trigger? What will happen to Sadie?

I’m still confused WHY we’re focused on JFK. why was this the pivotal moment we wait 5 years for? I am beginning to forget Jake. And George seems to be forgetting too… LOVE IT

This book is so slay omg. Can’t stop reading 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

YELLOW CARD MAN TO ORANGE CARD MAN TO DEAD BLACK MAN. EEEEEEEK SCARYYYYY it’s getting so good this book is so good

Eeek thank god I’m reading this after my slump

Gosh. The cover is amazing. But I don’t like the writing and the timeline is SO confusing. It jumps timelines in the SAME PARAGRAPH. I wish the storyline was more consistent. And I love short chapters but everything feels like it abruptly ends, with no ? Nuance? Insight? Just. Happenings. I feel bad. I want to finish it though

Bruh

Is this gonna trigger me lol

Did Paul kill his family or something

Yikes Paul 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

OH MY GOD THE SLOW BURN. ITS GETTING SCARY. ANXIETY. EHAT IS GONNA HAPPEN?? Only 80 pages? What’s gonna happennnnn
