Another audiobook I loveJust before I started East of Eden I finished Where the Crawdads Sing. I highly recommend the Audible [version].

But I can already tell, the characters are just so rich.

A book I'd love to be in an adaptation ofI love that I'm only gonna say Stephen King stuff. I've always wanted them to make The Long Walk, which he wrote under a different name.

The last book to make me cryThe last book I read was Like Streams to the Ocean, by my buddy Jedediah Jenkins.

A book I read in secret as a kidI read It — I mean, I wasn't super young, but it was definitely a book that I kept hidden.
