John Dies at The End by Jason Pargin (David Wong)
Because I failed to properly call for an organize nominations and voting for October Book Club selection, we will forgo a formal vote and read John Dies at The End, as it had the most interest in the nomination post and it's a good fit for a spooky season read. We'll do better and be more organized in the lead up to a November selection.
This is definitely a self paced discussion, but please try to finish and post your thoughts before the end of the month if possible. This is an easy read and likely an entertaining one.
Thank you so much for participating! I am excited to hear your thoughts.
I read this in the last year and really enjoyed the writing style of it. Unfortunately, I feel like the word choice was often edgy for the sake of being edgy in the mid 2000s way that makes it very hard to recommend to people now. I hope everyone that reads it enjoys the wild ride that is this book!
Nail on the head with word choice. I actually listened to a good portion of the audiobook and that actually made it stand out even more. I had to switch back to reading because it bothered me less. Fun story though.
