"The thing with kids is, if they want to grab for the gold ring, you have to let them do it, and not say anything. If they fall off, they fall off, but it is bad to say anything to them.” ― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher In The Rye

BOOK CLUB: October Reveal

October 5, 2015 Heather Ratliff

Are you ready to get wigged out just in time for Halloween? Because this month's selection is written by the master of horror himself, Stephen King!  Yes, Cell by Stephen King is the winner of October's Book Club!

Not that I need another reason to bring a flash light with me when I go outside at night, but I am very excited about reading a book by Stephen King! I guess now is the time to admit I've never read one of his books- I've only watched the movie adaptations.  (P.S. The movie adaptation of The Mist was TERRIBLE!)

Maybe I'll get so motivated by the Halloween spirit that I'll pick up Heart-Shaped Box by Joe Hill and really scare the crap out of myself.  (I'm freaked out just thinking about it. I think that's a good start?)

I'll be back in a few days to discuss September's Book Club selection, Rubbernecker by Belina Baur!  Happy reading!

Please consider sharing this post. Even if you can't donate, just spreading the word will offer a chance of survival to any one of these horses.  They're scared, away
Hey all.  We don't mean to be the little rescue that cries wolf but we are dead in the water today.  We've only gotten about $400 in for today's auction.  Yikes.
