Holly by Stephen King (Audiobook)

Holly Cover

I managed to get through most of the new Stephen King novel, Holly, this week and boy was it something special. A compelling, character-driven murder mystery with some gruesome twists behind it, Holly is an exceptional novel that proves to be instantly addictive. I am loving this book so much and I have about an hour left on the audiobook version. I will probably finish this off first thing tomorrow and I cannot wait to see how King concludes this awesome and shocking read.

The Last Devil to Die Cover

My plan for tomorrow is to start the new Thursday Murder Club audiobook, The Last Devil to Die.

Following a former criminal turned scribe, soldier and knight, The Traitor sees the protagonist torn between love and the greater good in a particularly harrowing adventure. I am about halfway through The Traitor at the moment and things are really starting to get dark and very intense. I cannot wait to see how this epic series comes to an end and I’m sure I won’t be fully prepared for every dark twist and turn that is to come.
