As Christines pages went though my fingers at a rapid pace, I realized how good Stephen could write. I also understood that no one could ever totally capture the story on Film, because your mind makes the words start living, in a way only you know, others cant capture that.
When Chrsitine grabbed her first victim, I knew she was evil, yet profoundly attractive, a fact that made me fly over the pages even more.
At the end it was 06:00 I started to read the day bvefore at 16:00 hrs.
When I ran to school (bike) I was told to explain why I came in class at 06:56 You had to be in Meeke Kowsolea's class at no later that 06:52.
My story of reading Christine was a great speech, with Meeke, my GB English teacher floating at my lips, as I told with proper buildup, who and what christine was, giving a 90 minute unprepared speech of the book, going into all gruesome details of what she did, and only revealing that Christine was a car after a significant while.
In the end I received a standing ovation from Meeke and my classmates who all wanted to read Stephen's books. Meeke was very pleased with my speech and gave me a 9.8 the highest ever for and improptu speech, which counted for 33 1/3 % of my english grade that quarter

What have you been reading today? As you all know reading expands your knowledge in your fields of interest. Reading for entertainment is better than looking at a movie of the same book.
I for one, first **READ** Christine by Stephen King, before watching the bland excerpt which never can capture the dark minded fantasies of the author.
Christine has been the first book I've read bny Stephen and I was glued to the pages, letting my own fantasies create even more elaborate stories upon the main line, while reading this awsome book, as I was in class 409 of our Lyceum school, one level before University of SR. The shool had three of the 6 years still in place and the Onderwijs Bibliotheek was a regularly visited place for me, a kid who started riding bikes on two wheels at the age of two (!)
I could never get books by Stephen since they were always lended out.
The librarian told me I needed to get the book back in 72 hours since many wanted it, but that dark tuesday I was the only one to ask for it, as Christine was sitting on the shelf behind her...
When I raced home, I took my bath, did the homework and then started with getting to know Christine.
The physical media made a profound impact upon me, as I went through the pages. I did not know that She was a car, a possessed car. Then I realized that Christine was purrimg stationary, idling at just 648 RPM, when I picked her up from the shelf.
I read Chrsitine in just one day. Did NOT sleep, because I needed to know how the story progressed

Habe beschlossen, ich teile keine Rezensionen, Buchvorstellungen etc. mehr von Großverlagen und Bestsellerautor*innen. Auch nicht Phantastik. Das hat einen einfachen Grund: sie haben schon genug Support und tauchen quasi überall vermehrt auf, wo Bücher besprochen werden.
Sieht man auch oft bei Buchbloggenden und Influencer*innen: da werden teilweise gefühlt von zig Leuten die gleichen Bücher gehypt, bis die nächste Runde dran ist. 
This could be the one and only time I come joint 7th place with Gillian Anderson and I’m taking it!!!

Persuader (Jack Reacher 7) by Lee Child | Book Review
Jack Reacher.
The ultimate loner.
An elite ex-military cop who left the service years ago, he’s moved from place to place…without family…without possessions…without commitments.
And without fear. Which is good, because trouble–big, violent, complicated trouble–finds Reacher wherever he goes. And when trouble finds him, Reacher does not quit, not once…not ever.
But some unfinished business has now found Reacher. And Reacher is a man who hates unfinished business.
Ten years ago, a key investigation went sour and someone got away with murder. Now a chance encounter brings it all back. Now Reacher sees his one last shot. Some would call it vengeance. Some would call it redemption. Reacher would call it…justice.
How was it?
The seventh book in Lee Child’s Jack Reacher series kicks off with a bang – literally. The story screeches in with some action right from the start, pulling readers into the chaos before offering any explanations. I was thrown by some of what was happening in that opening scene. It was a smart move that set the tone for a relentless, twisty thriller that managed to hold my attention from beginning to end. I kept questioning and speculating about everything that was going on, and yet I was more surprised here than any other Reacher books that I’ve read so far.
One of the things I find interesting in this book is how it grounds Reacher in the era it was written. His uncertainty with emails, for example, is a subtle but telling reminder of the early 2000s – a marker of time that adds a bit of charm to his otherwise tough-as-nails persona.
The plot revolves around unfinished business from Reacher’s past, resurfacing through a chance encounter. This setup gives us a gripping combination of vengeance and justice, wrapped in Reacher’s signature approach – uncompromising, strategic, and ruthless. What stands out here is the back-and-forth narrative between the present-day operation and the dark incident that happened ten years earlier. The back-and-forth kept me on edge, it was slowly unraveling the mystery of what went wrong in the past while Reacher tackled the present-day threat. Although both have dark moments, the past incident is really the one that F’d me up because at some point in the book I didn’t want to know the details. But ultimately, the back-and-forth structure worked well in heightening the tension and tying together the plot.
There’s a lot of darkness hinted at in Persuader – disturbing acts and messed-up goons that push Reacher’s moral boundaries. These elements give the story an edge that makes it one of the grittier entries I’ve read. It’ll be interesting to see how these darker themes are adapted into season 3 of Reacher, especially since some of the hinted atrocities might not make it to the screen.
Overall, Persuader is a tightly wound, action-packed thriller that delivers classic Jack Reacher. With intense action, a gritty narrative, and a well-paced mystery, this book showcases everything fans love about the series. Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to Reacher’s world, this entry is a must-read.
Rating: 4 out of 5.

J’ai reçu un bête-seller par la poste: un gros pavé que je n’ai jamais demandé. Cependant, hier soir, j’ai lu quelques chapitres, par curiosité. J’aurais pu me tromper. Ça arrive à tout le monde et je suis la première à le reconnaître. Après tout, il y a des millions de personnes qui aiment cette série…
Hé ben non.
Voilà, c’est tout.
Je n’en parlerai pas plus
(et c’est déjà trop).
Really cool. Our children’s book, “Cookie Crumbs in Space” made it onto Germany’s top 10 bestseller list (for kids). This is essentially Astro 101 for primary school kids (and parents and grandparents), also addressing some deep questions children ask - all packed in a story. #astrodon #astronomy #kinderbuch #Bestseller #scicomm

- A new study purports to have discovered the source of the “#WitchCraze” that led to witch hunts across Europe and America in the 15th through 17th centuries.
- New ideas about #Witches—casting them as a “conspiratorial activity against godly society” — came from a #Book called #MalleusMaleficarum
