That was a cool book! Glad I read it cuz I had no idea dude was writing horror-ish s***

Glad you enjoyed it bro. Was also a surprise to me to see him write something other than sci fi.

What was your favorite part?

honestly I think father-son s\*\*\*, mostly old timers thoughts ... it gave me a lot of nostalgia and hmmm... a lot of actual feelings and empathy for this kinda situation

How's reading going, everyone?

almost done with it. good read especially for Halloween. reminds me of when I use to read the Hardy boy books

Just finished the book lol. Loved it ❤️Some of the themes/characters really resonate with me, especially Will and his father's relationship and the struggle with acceptance by the latter. Again, the writting style is beautiful but i understand how some people can't get into it, since this type of descriptive prose isn't my thing either but Bardbury's pen game is on point Mf creates moods and pictures effortlessly.
Wanna read it again sometime soon tbh, since only got the physical book when i was halfway through it

Perfect Fall book 🍂

might watch the 1983 movie

Good stuff bro! and damn i used to read Hardy Boys growing up. never made the correlation, but i can honestly see it now.

Yes! I'm glad you loved it, fam. I think i'm the same, where i really just connected with this book on a whole other level, and that's why i hold it so dearly.

Bradbury is such a beast though. His writing is another thing that just clicks with me, so that's probably where a lot of the my bias for him comes from.

I think i'm gonna start running through Bradbury's books soon. I've read a few and have read some of his short stories too, which are all goat

“First of all, it was October, a rare month for boys.”
This s*** real right here

My pops rented it on Netflix (it was only available on physical lol) but we never watched it lmao. Still wanna peep though.

Thank you for putting me on brodie Def wanna read more of him too, have you peeped The Halloween Tree already? Seems to be in the same vain as Something Wicked, looks interesting + it's a quick read

Bruhhhh i have read that lol. I didn't recommend it because it's considered a "young adult" book, but its definitely not lol. If you're looking for a truly great Halloween read, def peep that. Loved the story and everything about it, and it's typical Bradbury with his descriptiveness and poetic ish

Ayeee, i'm sold by the title alone next up on my reading list is Tractatus by Wittgenstein then probably Halloween Tree (A crime to not read it in October lol)

What is Tractatus about?

From the little i know about it, it's a book that basically aims at understanding the relation between reality and language and to delimit how far we can express our thoughts/ideas in conversation... “The limits of my language means the limits of my world."

It's the first thing i'm gonna read by him, so i'm not really familiar with his philosophy that well outside of watching some videos about it

shared these just in case you're interested​

damn this sounds interesting. If we don’t have a book for November, I might just read this one with you

Can y’all @ me whenever you start a new book?

Want to read a lot more novels heading into next year

Gotchu fam

Book Club Fam,

Sorry I've been busy with my own comic launch the past month or so, and due to that, book club will be back in Jan 2020. Hope everyone has a great holiday, and also please provide some recommendations for the new year!

Good luck with that bro Book Club can wait. I will post some suggestions tmrrow

drop a link to the comic when it's ready

my recommendation for the next book is The White Boy Shuffle by Paul Beatty. my favorite book from one of my favorite authors that I've been meaning to reread and I think a lot of people on here would like it.

I'll give any book a chance tho

Happy holidays
