@ThesebootsRmade4walking I've been enjoying his novels for decades.

@ChipmunkErnie nice. I look forward to checking him out!

@ChipmunkErnie Great suggestion.

@turningthekeys it's a good read.. Maybe a bit quirky and an acquired taste.

@ThesebootsRmade4walking It is a political drama about a Supreme Court or cabinet position appointment.

@ProfessorPlum77 that sounds good. I like the style.

@ThesebootsRmade4walking Check it out! 🤠

@fun4us2b yes! Sounds good.

@MrBlueGuy I haven't read him in years, probably decades, but recently came across a short video about him in which it was revealed that much of his early work was heavily censored before publication because the editor his publisher assigned to him was extremely Puritanical and removed anything she thought would be inappropriate for a child -- her perceived view of his reading audience.

@caPnAhab that sounds fucking awesome.

@HowtoDestroyAngels man, I love this book such that I wrote a post about it a while ago. It's in my pinned posts

@caPnAhab I'll check it out.

@katydidnt Read them all but the last two. Excellent books! I loved Grapes of Wrath❤

@ThesebootsRmade4walking Texts of the two short ones can be found online. They melted my heart in both sad and happy ways.

@rinkydinkydoink sounds intriguing.

@HowtoDestroyAngels Tale of Two Cities was a good read

@ThesebootsRmade4walking Most books by those 2 guys are pretty good - David Copperfield is my favorite Dickens and The Stand is really quintessential King...

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout He was drinking the quality cough syrup when he wrote the Dark Tower series.

@goliathtree lolz right. At the height of a max coke binge.

The first book was a short story for college.. he built on it 😎👍

@QCDog2659 excellent book!

@Kwek00 I will have to check those out. Thank you.

@BiasForAction I love Toni Morrison

@Bexsy looks interesting - you like it?

@fun4us2b yes, was a book rec. From a friend here. I am a dad joke fiend. So, let's just say this book tickles me.
