Everyone reads at their own pace during a Buddy Read. Because participants can be at different parts of the book at different times, it is extremely important to mark spoilers so that the book is not ruined for someone who is not as far along as others!!!

Mark spoilers by placing {spoiler} before the text and {/spoiler} after the text but use the < and > instead of the { and }.

Here are some questions to help get the conversation started! Feel free to look up discussion questions specific to this book or come up with your own. Just make sure any questions that contain spoilers are under spoiler tags.
Discussion questions are not required but may be a fun way to talk about the book and get to know each other!

Prior to starting:
What prompted you to join this buddy read?
Have you read this author before? What do you think of their other books?

Mid-read:
What character or ideas do you relate to the most and why?
Do you have any favorite quotes or scenes?

After reading:
What was enjoyable or not-so-enjoyable about this book?
Did this book change your perception about anything, either within the book (character development) or in real life?

I've decided to join you in this buddy read, if you'll have me 🤭 Short enough to squeeze in with other reads.

Welcome LinaVer!

I'll be starting this after my current audio book, by this weekend I think.

I'm reading this for the "character who runs a marathon" prompt for Popsugar. Stephen King is always hit or miss for me, so I never know what to expect. I wonder if he'll be able to end this better considering it's short!

You’re welcome, LinaVer. It’s been a while since I’ve read any short stories by Stephen King, but I remember enjoying them. Like you, SarahKat, King has become a bit hit-or-miss for me as well.

Last year, I started reading—or sometimes rereading—all of his books with a friend who is a huge fan. Let’s see if this one works for me. I’ll probably start on Friday or Saturday.

Hi, hope it's okay I join this buddy read. I saw this book on display at my local library and thought I'd give it a try.
