I'm definitely joining in! This looks like fun!
Mod
Count me in.
Hope I love it, let's do my first group read
This sounds sinister & fun. Count me in!😀
Thank you for this. Just bought it on the Kindle. Look forwards to reading with you all!
Half way through. The Audible edition is narrated by RC Bray and that man can make a grocery list riveting. So far it’s a pretty entertaining read.
That’s good to hear Greg. I’ll be listening to it.
Just realized it's Baxter month. Dog's name is Baxter in Hell Hound and the Author of The Roo is also a Baxter.Just finished the audio book. It was a fun little read. Since The Roo is another short one I may "hop" into that one as well.
My library has an ebook available so I'll be joining in. This sounds like a fun group read
Mod
Our theme next month will be books written by, or featuring characters named "Baxter".
Like in the teenage mutant ninja turtles cartoon?! The fly guy!?
I have this on audio so I'll join in at the end of the week if it's not too late!
Yup Tash that would be Baxter Stockman the fly creature from TMNT. 👍
Mod
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who knew that! LOL!
Can't wait to read this! Just bought it....
As soon as it arrives in my mailbox-I’m in!
This is a good one! It made me glad we've always had cats instead of a dog, lol ;-).
planning on starting it this upcoming weekend when I go on vacation
Sweet, was planning to pick it up anyways, waiting for me at the library as we speak.
Has anyone seen the film adaptation of this. “Baxter” it’s a French film. Is it any good?
I read this in one sitting last night. I'm still processing it. I love dogs so I'm not entirely sure what I think yet. But I will say, that is very well written and thought provoking. It's a shame Greenhall has all but faded into obscurity.
found a bit of time this afternoon and was able to start reading...if I'd only had just an hour or so I'd likely have already finished. It's delightfully twisted.
Mod
I will be starting this today.
I will join and start this in a few days. I got a copy two years ago and haven't read it yet. It was missing in my subscription box and they send me a new one with 'missing hell hound' written on the declaration for customs. That was fun when I had to pick it up 😂
Mod
It was a quick read once I had the time to sit down and go through it. But not quite the book for me. Something about it just didn't click.
My copy just arrived. I'll be starting this one tonight.
I think I’m going to have to agree with Wendy on this one.
I have it finally! Need to finish up the book I’m reading, then onward through to the dog! Looking forward to this book.
I finished yesterday. I enjoyed it, although I didn't feel a connection to many of the characters either.
Mod
I have just started it. I'm 16 pages in, not sure what to think of it yet.
Mod
Same.
I just finished the book and really didn't like it.
Mod
I can't complain about the writing, but the subject matter was too much for me.
I finished. Gave it 3 stars...I think. I don't think I'll ever be rereading that.
I finished it and gave it four stars on Goodreads. Quite unique and I kept wanting to read on to see if Baxter would ever get found out & what would happen to him.
Even though he obviously wasn’t a likeable dog the ending still shocked me. I quite liked the story because it was so different.
This was a short and disturbing read...in a good way. I fear for future people that interact with Carl Fine since he seems to be a budding psychopath.I really appreciate being introduced to the works of Greenhall. Definitely not anyone I had ever heard of and discoveries like this are exactly what I love about this group.
Andrew, Elizabeth was really good if you want to read more by him.
Mod
LOVED ELIZABETH!
