• 32: DOCTOR SLEEP (Part 5)
    Aug 21 2025

    This week our discussion of Stephen King's Doctor Sleep continues as we discuss chapters 13-17 of the novel. The confrotation between Team Abra and the True Knot ramps up as Dan's plan successfully foils the True's plan to get Abra... at least at first. We chat about the great moments of the confrontation and the surprisingly inconsequential mistakes Abra makes. Also, Scott has some...issues with the big reveal of Abra's lineage.

    Next week: Doctor Sleep concludes as we read chapter 18 through the end of the novel.
