I'm here to discuss the final episodes of HBO's adaptation of The Outsider.

Welcome back, everyone! Last week, King released his newest novel, The Outsider! Part crime-fiction, part supernatural, it's a great blend of the genres that King loves, and the mix creates for a new, enjoyable experience that plays upon real-world fears. Plus, it includes the appearance of a fan-favorite Stephen King character! That was such a treat! As always, write in at [email protected] Follow me on Instagram, Tik Tok, Facebook and Bluesky.

This past weekend, news hit that a big-budget adaptation of The Tommyknockers directed by The Conjuring and Insidious director James Wan was being shopped around. So I decided to share my thoughts on this, along with my thoughts on some news regarding The Stand adaptation. But because The Tommyknockers is such a maligned and unloved novel, I thought it was important for people to be able to see it in a different light, so I've re-released my review of the book, which isn't without it's flaws, but is jam-packed with wonderful ideas, imagery and chills that make me excited for whatever James Wan (I trust that guy!) has up his sleeve."

In 2013, Stephen King released a wonderful little book about the first steps into adulthood, heartbreak, love, friendship and carnies set against the backdrop of a coastal amusement park. Here, King is able to speak about a time period (early twenties) that he hasn't really tackled before with mesmerizing honesty and clarity.
