    The Outsider Thread

    I’m 135 pages in. As expected with Sai King, it’s hard to put down.

    What Are You Reading? Part Deux

    I hope you enjoy it as much as I did, Scott. The final hundred pages or so are among Koontz’s most suspenseful (IMO)!

    Roseanne TV show Revival

    I liked this week’s episode — Dan and Roseanne’s chemistry was finally ‘there’ for me. It felt like the original run! Man, Becky’s acting though... sheesh

    Steve's Picks

    The Chalk Man made me angry. Very much a rip-off of King’s works.

    DISCUSSION #5 - “Popsy”

    Okay, *tonight* we discuss. My days have been off all week! :P I like “Popsy” a good deal more than “Night Flier.” It gets to the point and it actually scares me. Good stuff.

    So strange, so funny, and oddly sinister!

    Discussion #4: “THE NIGHT FLIER”

    Discussion #4: “THE NIGHT FLIER”

    Welcome. Tonight we will discuss “The Night Flier,” a sort of companion piece to the next story in the collection, “Popsy.” This was my first time reading this story. It was cool seeing Richard Dees again, and his character (the way he thinks of his readers) made me chuckle a couple of times...

    Hi, all! Tonight we discuss the 1970s short story, “Suffer the Little Children,” which was going to be in Night Shift but was dropped for “Gray Matter” (an inferior story, IMO). I like this one. Hell, I love it. I think. It’s dark as hell, and has no redeeming value, but that’s why I’m such a...
