Also via audiobook. Not my preferred mode of reading, but nonfiction (for me) works best in this medium.

Sure, Rick. A VIP camper goes missing at a summer camp in upstate New York. It’s told in alternating points of view and lots of flashbacks. I found it very compelling and would recommend!

Yes to this! I’m leaning so much more into seminar discussion with nothing but their books and a notebook in front of students.

Finished God of the Woods this morning. Wondering about alternating POV, fragmented narratives, and the contemporary novel. How does its form mirror our fractured attention? Is this a strategy employed by current novelists? Could be a cool question for our students.

I haven’t read it since college. Unfortunately, it’s not as frightening as I remember! My favorite recent novel of King’s is Billy Summers. Check it out if you haven’t read it!
