Pet Semetary - Stephen King
★★★★★
This one really got me on the edge of my seat. My first horror book, starting
off really strong with what I've been told is one of King's best and scariest. The
slow build-up makes the payoff at the end really hit hard.
Babel - R.F. Kuang
★★★☆☆
I had hoped to like this more than I did. In my opinion, this one should be labeled
YA. In the last third of the book the story loses it's groundedness that made me
like the first 2/3rds, and fully leans into a way more improbable YA-like story.
