"Eldritch" is too much like "Elder-itch" which sounds like an old person's crotch fungus.

I smell.....hmm.....fleas, no wait....CIA agents, no wait.....WTF agents...yum. And dirty little scone grabbers...eww!

Ooo! Giant battle about to take place and I have to stop reading. Sad face.

Damn! This book is taking so loooong. Harumph.

Skippy is SOOO much better than Murderbot.

An Alien made from broccoli? Why not?

This book is a friggin' doorstopper.

I think I shall read this out loud to myself as a bedtime story.

OMG! This book is so loooooong. Lucky it has one of the best AI characters in history.

Reading this book makes me feel like I'm 12 years old again. Wait. I'll check in the mirror......... Nope. Still old and crusty.

Here I am, coasting my way through this book and wondering, "Why am I reading this?" I have no sane answer, but I must read on.

Arhhgg! A kid's book AND it's a Fantasy. I only read Fantasy if there be dragons, and yet I feel strangely compelled to keep on reading. What evil, hypnotic power doth this book possesseth?

It's a big book.

Don't go around tonight
Well, it's bound to take your life
There's a bad moon on the rise

I see trouble on the way...I see earthquakes and lightnin'...I see bad times today.

I see a bad moon rising...

Werewolves! Yay.

Oh dear! I've reached the part dealing with the terrorist attack on a New Zealand mosque where in 30 minutes, a lone gunman killed 50 innocent people and injured 40 others. Like Jacinda, I shed a few tears.

Unusual beginning, but a goodly amount of creepiness.

The seeds of political will have been sown.
