fiction, non-fiction, world books, mystery books, horror books, sci-fy, us history, foreign language....

 

but I’ve never read a book that made me this fucking uncomfortable...

only on page 22...of a horror book (when quite frankly I’ve never found horror books to be scary)...and every 3 seconds I have to walk away from it...

I read a 3 page short story about a teenage boy jacking it in a pool then ending up getting his intensities sucked out of him by a pool filter.....

 

I don’t think I can keep reading this book...

Ah, ok. I don't have that one. :D 

Sometimes you just get a book that you can't quite get through. I have yet to read 'Gerald's Game' by Stephen King for the same reasons you are having issues with this one.

I don’t find anything king has done to be scary...it’s all rather campy

Normally yeah. I'm the type who thought the original 'Poltergeist' was a comedy. :D 

But I also have a really vivid imagination when I get sucked into a book and there are entire sections where the tortures are really descriptive. Grosses me out. My personal theory about King is that the worse his condition gets [ he's slowly going blind ] the more detail he tries to cram into every story. Eventually his short stories will consist of nothing but how all the senses are involved when someone is disemboweled.

So you haven't got to the part where they eat chunks of a passed out woman's ass who later wakes up? That's  a fun book.

You referring to the story “Guts”....nope haven’t gotten there

No, it's a part of the story about all the people at the house. They wanna replicate the Bram Stoker Mary Shelly sleepover folktale but in this modern world things are hardcore.

That short story was a very visceral experience. Haven't read the rest, but I read that part and was told the quality in that regard never lets up, which is impressive.

Man, I read that wrong. I thought it said a dude trying to get his intestines sucked out by a pool filter, but winds up getting jacked off.

I always forget what flerping timeline I'm in O_o

Reading the stories mentioned from this book in here it sounds less like horror and more gross.
