Such an amazing book. I need to see the movie.

[@bookwormofthedamned]

The movie is good. The ending is different than the book though.

[@missbealovesalbert8353]

Will we make the correct decision? Are we able to make the decision? What is the correct decision? We are, each and every one of us, responsible for humanity's outcome. People can't/refuse to see what is right in front of them. The ending, of course, is all these questions and elludes to a statement of our inability to see beyond what we believe in any way. It is not meant for you to wonder what happens next in the book. It is meant for you to see yourself and question how what you believe affects everything- your six degrees. That's what I think.

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Agreed and I think it was that aspect that scared the 💩 out of me. I know some people hated not having an answer, but I feel it is way more effective without an answer.

Don't know if you'll read this comment, it being 10 months after the posting of the video. But I started this book and stopped about 60-pages in. I don't know why (I wasn't bored with it or anything), I just stopped. I'm reading another novel by the author right now called THE PALLBEARER'S CLUB. I'm really enjoying that one. I'm about half-way through it. With KNOCK AT THE CABIN now out, I might give this one another go when I'm done. I love Paul Tremblay's writing and A HEAD FULL OF GHOSTS is one of the best modern horror novels I've ever read.

[@bookwormofthedamned]

I still need to read more of his books. Headful of Ghost has been on my TBR for a while.

[@Puppy_Puppington]

Thank you plenty for your review and for going over the most important plot points!!! Very much appreciated!

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Thank you for watching!

[@gi1bert139]

Great review bro 🫡

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Thank you!

[@shaunmccomish8572]

Read 'A Head full of ghosts' a while back and really enjoyed it. Will have to get around to this one ASAP.

[@bookwormofthedamned]

I have heard great things about Head Full! It's on my TBR

[@mindysbookjourney]

Oh yeah, this is such a great book. I am one that landed on liking the ending. Such a tense read.

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Omg yes! I'm so happy to meet another who liked the ending. It is still haunting me.

[@arthurillud4720]

yeah i know a lot of people did not like the ending but i felt it was much deserved. the idea of the ending makes you think hmm yeah prob don't blame them lol

[@missbealovesalbert8353]

It's not just a Christian tone. It actually is about beliefs of anyone of any kind. We all belong to a "cult". We just believe it's the other cults that are incorrect. It's always the "other guy" with people.

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Very true!

[@ginahanson2]

As always a fantastic review. This was such a great buddy read. The deep diving was a blast and John really knocked it out of the park with his searches. Thanks for the fun times guys♡

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Thank you for reading this with us. I wish we could all sit in the same room and read together to see each other's expression.

[@dolongowoods4274]

I thought the book was weird. They break into the house just to kill themselves?

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Well, technically it's to give the family a choice. Because if the family doesn't choose a sacrifice, it leads to one of the four intruders being killed by the other. And with every death that occurs between the intruders, it moves the apocolypse along, until at last there are no more of the intruders and the world ends. That is unless a family member offers themselves up as a sacrifice to prevent the intruders from killing each other off.

[@virginiaandrade8009]

Just finished it minutes ago.. Loved this book and you did a wonderful review. I feel it more attributing to fate and just about the doom of destiny like each of us almost seemingly at the mercy and control of an invisible and indiscernable program of a cruel and careless taskmaster regardless of the illusion of perceived individual will. God doesn't care. We live as repeated vessels of events that have happened before and will inevitably happen again and again. And religion plays as a mask for our perception of it. Great read. And I was glad in a way both Eric and Andrew had escaped that loop of willfull sacrifice 🍵

[@Puppy_Puppington]

If there is a creator then it doesn’t care for our pain and suffering. If there isn’t one then well… makes no difference on much. Energy and matter are such a trip. How molecules and atoms and subatomic particles just have their laws in space and some of them create consciousness and become self aware…

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Thank you for sharing this. I loved seeing your insight!

[@Priscilla_Bettis]

Good review. This book freaked me out. I think Tremblay portrayed evil really well!

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Omg yes, he did! This will totally make my top 3 scary books for the year. I can't stop thinking about it.

[@ZCr3ations]

Love your reviews!

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Thank you! Love and miss you.

[@kevinsbookcase59]

I truly loved this book. I live over on the West coast, so it kinda hit close to home for me. I have always wondered what would happen if I was hit with a tsunami. I don't want to find out...but... 😂 When I finished the book, I was wondering if there will be a sequel? 🤔

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Tbh, I hope there isn't a sequel. I love the openness of wondering if it really was the end of not. I'm still on the fense about what really happened. Also, I hope you never have to go through a tsunami!

[@kevinsbookcase59]

@@bookwormofthedamned I've been through many warnings...and 3 actual tsunamis... thankfully little ones... nothing major.

[@RetaliationStudios1997]

@Bookworm of the Damned I just came up with a brilliant surprise in book 1, but I won't spoil it! It's regarding the school, itself!

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Too cool!

[@aleksandereide7538]

just finished it and loved it so much, cant wait for febuary when the movie comes out :)

[@bookwormofthedamned]

Awesome! I'm really stoked about the movie as well. The trailer looks good!

[@erikabearden608]

Love the name of your channel. Thanks for the review, well done. I enjoyed the book AND the movie.❤

[@joewhite3559]

i think they are the 4 horse men ....

[@bookwormofthedamned]

We thought that, too! And it would make sense if they were.

[@joewhite3559]

@@bookwormofthedamned well never read the book but i watch the trailer,then notice that is was a book and that led me to you...but they are all dress the same beside different colored shirts..im not super christian but redman i guess is the guy in the redshirt...strikes me as war... and the guy in the white shirt would be death..but its all symbolism..

[@joewhite3559]

@@bookwormofthedamned i will try to get the book this weekend and read to give my final opinion ..great video btw

[@bookwormofthedamned]

@@joewhite3559 very true and they are wearing the same colors in the book. But the author stays very on the fense about if it's the end or not. While I'm not super Christian either, I think it was the end. I can't wait to see what you think of the book!

[@joewhite3559]

@@bookwormofthedamned I do agree they from what you said and watching the trailer that it has a cult feel to it...growing up in Alabama...some churches believe in holding deadly snakes is in their docturn..eh ... I do see what the writer is trying to go for.. I do see that its also up to the reader or to who ever watches the movie..Two fathers and a adoped kid feels organic to me as well...i am going to see if i can get the book this saturday so i will let you know. But i feel like its going to rip my heart out and stomp on it.. 😩

[@jackhall8994]

Good book with a bad ending

[@bookwormofthedamned]

I could see where some people would feel that way.

[@Notatallpee]

Lost me at her dads.

[@bookwormofthedamned]

No worries, this channel isn't for homophobes. I'm sure there's another channel out there that is more your speed. I also review books by transgender authors. So yeah, this platform isn't for you.

[@Notatallpee]

@@bookwormofthedamned no that’s where you’re wrong. This platform is for me the minority is you you are a small percentage of what people like to listen to and what people wanna hear and majority speaks they don’t want to hear stories about two dads
