Different Seasons is actually a set of four novellas. They are all so completely different. They don’t go together at all and most of them were long enough that they could totally have been their own separate book. I reviewed each of the four shorts separately and averaged my rating at a 4.

#Review #4stars The Body, by Stephen King #keepersofking
MY REVIEW 4 stars: I vaguely remember watching Stand by Me as a kid – the movie based on this novella. It was kind of cool remembering bits and pieces of it while reading. All the impactful scenes, like the train stuff, the kid searching for pennies under the porch, the dog and the junk…

Rav: Vampires in Wonderland #0.5, by Candace Robinson and Amber Duell MY REVIEW 5 stars: What a powerful ‘BITE’ sized read to set the stage for a series that’s clearly sure to be full of wonder and bloody darkness!! I love Alice in Wonderland, even more than I love The Wizard of Oz. So to…
#Review #5stars The Warmth of Other Suns: The Epic Story of America’s Great Migration, by Isabel Wilkerson
MY REVIEW 5 stars: Wow… just wow. I don’t even know where to start on this review, because wow! This isn’t a book that you can read in one sitting, or even two or three, at least not for me anyway. It’s taken me well over a month to read it. Not only because it’s…
#Review #5stars Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption, by Stephen Kink #KeepersofKing
MY REVIEW 5 STARS: This classic novella, to me, has a bit of a different feel to it than a lot of other King books. The pace, the impact, the calculation… really just all of it. There’s a sense of patience and buildup that has a sort of satisfaction to it. For the most part,…
#review #3stars Kybalion: A Study of the Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece
MY REVIEW 3 stars: I listened to this book on audible, and it was barely four hours. Really short, yet also really easy to tune out, so my review is going to be short too. Don’t take my three stars wrong, I absolutely love anything that involves esoteric spirituality. I find it resonating, elevating and…
#Review #4stars #KeepersofKing Billy Summers, Stephen King
MY REVIEW 4 stars: I enjoyed this book quite a bit, not quite as much as I’d have liked to, but quite a bit nonetheless! I felt like it was missing something… like that big outrageously impractical bang that makes King such a literary King. I also felt like it was too long. I actually…
#Review Llewellyn’s Complete Book of Lucid Dreaming: A Comprehensive Guide to Promote Creativity, Overcome Sleep Disturbances & Enhance Health and Wellness, by Clair R. Johnson PhD #luciddreaming
3.75 My REVIEW: Okay, I really struggled with the rating for this book. I was back and forth between a 3 and 4 stars for a couple of days, putting off writing the actual review because of it. On one hand, I loved loved loved about a third of the content! On the other hand,…
#review #5stars The Bone Valley, by Candace Robinson @literarydust
MY REVIEW: My favorite aspect of Candace Robinson’s books is that they’re so completely different from anything else out there. Every single one, and I’m pretty sure I’ve read them all. The Bone Valley is just as unique, beautiful, odd and unforgettable as the rest of her books and it’s a stand alone so win…
