Stephen King challenge #19 THINNER
It is a great book. I guess many will like it too.
So skeleton crew will start in September
No, Thinner. Skeleton crew will be during October. I need to go back and fix it. You can't see that it's Thinner on the app. Sorry!
Thanks will find at library.
Awesome. Glad to have you joining us.
I'm b-b-a-a-c-c-k-k! I have Thinner on hold at my library.
lol great. nice to see you back.
I hope to make this BR challenge. I have the book, it's just a matter of getting through a few that I'm reading right now.Thanks for putting on this SK challenge Latasha!
Glad to see a good group! I have my copy ready to go as well.
Your welcome. It was actually started by Ken, another mod here. Me, Terry & bad seed girl just kept it going. :)
I'm in, but I'm also in the process of reading IT. Which is a beast of a novel!!
Welcome Scott and Ginger. I appreciate your dilemma. I'm finishing off Mr. Mercedes myself right now. (Sighs ruefully) So very, very, very many books, so little time (another sigh, and a slow shake of the head)
I'll shake my head with you lol
Yay! So, is this just a discussion thread about the book this month? I'm sorry; I'm new here!
Yep, read & discuss here. Starts the 17th
Yes, this thread is for the reading & discussion of Thinner.
I'm in! It's one of my favorite King's books and I'd love to read it again
I have my copy but we shall see if I can get through some other books first. Argggg!

I know. It's not that big of a book, but Godgrave I'm getting ready to start! We shall see =)
We aren't reading this til the 17th.
Cool!
On order from library. Trying to finish Deadzone so that I'm only reading one King at a time.
That was a good one.
I'm next on the list for the book at the local library. So maximum 3 weeks. It's a quick read so I should be able to catch/keep up with the group regardless of when I get it.
I have mine checked out and I think it will expire on the 28th lol. I hope I can get it read by then

Latasha, you're cracking me up. I've done this so many times with library books.Talk about some readin' stress! 😂😂

lol well I put a hold on it cause it usually takes forever but this time it didn't.
Guess what I'm holding in my hot little hands and have already read 38 pages of?!?!?
I need to as well. My loan expires in 5 days lol
Move it up a day if you have to so you can finish it Latasha!I can start on my book as well today. I would love to get going on this sucker.
Go ahead Latasha, you know you want to. It's ok, everyone is doing it. Just crack the book, one chapter won't hurt. (In a wheedling voice, rubbing hands together)

Just got back from the movie a little bit ago. Pretty good, I thought.

Nice! I need to go see it. I've heard it was also good from others.

Do it! 😱
I haven't got to see it yet either.
I love the description of the gypsy man. Very scary! My mind would've automatically thought leprosy. It took me a minute to realize the numbers with the chapters us his weight. I'm reading on the overdrive app and I hate it. The text is small. Like they wanted to cram all they could on one page.
So did he hit the man or woman?
Latasha wrote: "So did he hit the man or woman?"He hits the old Gypsy woman. The book is great so far!
I love how the chapters are his weight numbers.
As I'm reading this, I'm thinking "Lucky bastard. I want to lose weight that fast." 😏😂
Oh yeah Ginger! That would be great. Yeah after I ask, I read that he hit the woman.
Ok, by the end of chapter 4, I do think Heidi is nagging. She must be the on,y woman ever to be worried about dropping weight. 🙄 girl, calm down! (For now anyways lol)
Latasha wrote: "Ok, by the end of chapter 4, I do think Heidi is nagging. She must be the on,y woman ever to be worried about dropping weight. 🙄 girl, calm down! (For now anyways lol)"Seriously, she's ridiculous! She seems like the type that can never been satisfied.
"You're too fat. You're too skinny. Linda don't hang out with dirty gypsies. I want you to be healthy but I'll keep smoking cigarettes."
Good grief 🙄😂
