Boo! 👻
Did we get ya?
If we didn't, the King of Horror, Stephen King should have done the trick (or treat?) with this month's Halloween themed pick, Gerald's Game. Welcome to our second themed pick for Revolver Reads.
We were taken captive by the tragically sad life of Jessie Burlingame while she lay trapped in her bed for the foreseeable future.
Please join us (like we had a choice) as we delve into the inner workings of Jessie's mind and plot our escape.
This podcast includes topics may not be suitable for everyone. This particular novel has a number of triggers that we may be discussing or briefly touching upon. The full list of trigger warnings is available on TheStoryGraph, however, some notable triggers are sexual assault, child abuse, paedophilia, blood, and gore.
Additionally, King's representation of kink is unsafe and not an accurate depiction of a healthy, kinky relationship. Please remember kink has to be sane, safe, and consensual (SCC) and/or also follow the Risk-Aware Consensual Kink ideology (RACK). Here is a decent resource posted by Northwestern University, but, please feel free to do your own research [wink wink].
