Read the pit and the pendulum. Very lyrical writing

Today is the day of reckoning.

I guess I'm gonna take a short break eat something and then finish it

Bobby just let her go man, I god I can already imagine a plausible good ending but knowing what I got into it's not gonna happen at all.

This book is really agonizing, I'm not into captive/stuck horror much but, this is really gripping and it got me to care, it is really good but it's so damn upsetting. Horrible kids.

Let's see what happens next

Had to stop it because I was just not into it much a the time, I will probably pick it up and re read some for a refresher.

First 100 pages = slog

Rest is pretty great, moves very swiftly from page to page but occasionally has moments of confusion.

On first reading the interludes wore pretty frustrating

The adults half wasn't as bad as I thought

Occasionally shocking and questionable, but hey this was written by a nerd in the 80's fueled by coke and a typewriter.

I regret buying this, I regret picking it up, I'm afraid of what's to come, I need to finish this as fast as possible so and finish reading "It".

So why am I reading this? When we had a power outage and I went to my room to pick up a book in full darkness, I picked a hardcover and only got it revealed to me after stepping out of my room.

"Ooh shit this is that fucked up one!
- Let's do it, It can't be that bad!?"

Still making up my mind on it, super expressive prose with grotesque descriptions, a sense of alienation and aimlessness, emptyness and decay all leaking off the pages, very depressing and gross at times, it feels like trainspotting with all it's dark humor extracted, thus making for a hard read even in it's short length.

Also lots of off-putting sex scenes
