Karli’s comments from the Busy as a Bee Books group.

About to enter a hard crazy week...Kasia will be having surgery on Thursday, and we are planning a low key Christmas break for healing and recovery. Thoughts and prayers during these next few weeks are much appreciated.

Tasha, I think it probably is a mood thing, but I didn't care for it. I could tell it was a good book, just not one I cared for.

Awesome !

I bought it too, will have to read it in 2014.

Love this idea, Loretta. I'm terrible at sticking to the lists.

The Best Christmas Pagent Ever is one of my Christmas favorites.

In the past few days I've added 6 books to my nook and kindle. I think I may have a problem.

I have this on the shelf in my library. Book addict...

It was a Bee Book when I joined the group - never did read it. :)

I saw the movie eons ago…I'm not a fan of Tobey McGuire, so that wasn't too enticing for me. But I do love some of Irving's stuff, and have never disliked any.

is $1.99 on Kindle today!

And today is a new month, I'll be trolling again!

just scored a few books for $2.99 - Blindness, The Cider House Rules, Billy Lynns LongHalftime Walk and Empire byOrson Scott Card. Most of the Stephanie Plum series seems to be priced at $2.99 as well.

Yay!!!! Good call. I don't think you will be disappointed.

Apples and oranges. SK was trying a different genre with Joyland. It's not the same, or as good as this one.

I don't think you necessary get any more from it, more just recognizing themes, characters...um, so yeah, you may get more. :)

I loved the contrast of time periods with these two. I was born in the 70's, and remember the big cars, phones with cords...the vibe of that period really resonated. And then I loved Dr. Sleep and the current setting. It's really kind of boggling how different the word is in 35 years, and that an author can bridge that with appropriate pop culture references etc at both stages of his career. SK is a genius.

I am giving this one back to the library. For me it's too much angsty drama. I like the add ins more than I like the story or prose.

Loved this amazing work by SK. You don't need to read The Shining first, but I enjoyed reading them back to back. Excited for more bees to get into it!

I too really liked this one. I thought the characters believable and the storyline realistic as well. I'm looking forward to more on the series.
