I didn’t seek validation thanks! I knew exactly that my opinion probably wasn’t going to be popular as it’s a book with a somewhat cult following, and after the hate I got which was extremely personal I wondered if anyone else had experienced this! I don’t need sympathy, I’m a big girl. However it just struck me as abnormal as I’ve never experienced a tirade of negative opinions which were all extremely personal and not well reasoned or respectful.

honestly pretty much all of the comments I’ve had on my posts have been well reasoned and without a trace of childishness or mutiny!! Obviously people have different opinions to mine but they never get personal in the comments! It may just be the communities I’m in but I’ve never been disgusted by a reddit comment I’ve seen on a post I’ve made :) but i do hear a lot about reddit being a cesspit hahaha

There’s a couple of bits that don’t entirely line up between the two but I forgive that because they were written so far apart, but realistically it’s a great continuation and explores more of the shining talent that the main characters have and fills in some loopholes about the overlook!

yes Dr Sleep is such a good book about recovery, and I love the parallels at the start of the book where it says ‘FEAR stands for fuck everything and run’ and at the end when it says ‘FEAR stands for face everything and recover’
