Just finished Carrie. I loved the story but I wasn't hugely keen on the writing style and structure for this.

“We have a saying, my people. Don’t kill if you can wound, don’t wound if you can subdue, don’t subdue if you can pacify, and don’t raise your hand at all until you’ve first extended it.”
For the life of me, I can't recall whether or not I read the book. I have seen the movie(s) so many times times that I can't recall where the book diverges from them. Since I don't have that problem regarding other King novels and adaptations, I probably haven't checked it out.

I'm currently reading The Age of Innocence, by Edith Wharton
"The Batman is Gotham City. I will watch him. Study him. And when I know him and why he does not kill, I will know this city. And then Gotham will be MINE!"-BANE
"We're monsters, buddy. Plain and simple. I don't dress it up with fancy names like mutant or post-human; men were born crueler than Apes and we were born crueler than men. It's just the natural order of things"-ULTIMATE SABRETOOTH
I started reading today Flight of the Nighthawks (2005) by Raymond F. Feist, the first book from The Darkwar Saga trilogy and part of the mammoth The Riftwar Cycle.
Also today, I began on my Kindle The Phantom Herd (1915) by B.M. Bower.

I don't agree with everything he writes, but he offers some good analysis of societies post Brexit and Trump election.
Dark Tales by Jackson, Shirley - I like it but some of the stories are weird and not dark.
I finished the Sheila Connolly mystery novel Red Delicious Death and the trade paperback collection Conan The Barbarian Volume 2 - The Life and Death of Conan Part 2.
