This was our very first pick for book club and I may have made my reading partner a little nuts flip-flopping from liking a character to disliking him/her and then liking them again. An unreliable narrator and events that keep building up and leaving you with questions you need answered, like right now, make for a good read because it keeps you reading until you get to the answers.

“Everything changes into something else, turns into some version of what it was before.”
“Maybe the way back will somehow make sense of the coming.”
I think I’ve found a new favorite writer. Keegan has such talent for drawing you into a story, as though you’re actually in it - viewing and experiencing everything that’s going on first-hand.
In Small Things Like These the ending leaves the reader thinking about what happens to the characters beyond the chapter’s end. This story’s little twist will have you doing the same. This is my second read from this author. I will definitely read more of her work.

How, after all these years, King continues to churn fresh and engaging page-turners is beyond me. I can only suspect that the tale of the Two Talented Bastids is based on his life story, and that the character of Laird Carmody is based on none other than the distinguished master himself.
I read this book on my e-reader and listened to the audiobook at the same time (I highly recommend for the best reading experience). The audiobook’s narrator is outstanding, and the timbre of his voice will pull you in. In one of the stories, a character uses a voice-altering device when making a phone call, and one is used in the audiobook version; it made for a nice touch.
