When I was in the 7th grade, my mom told me the scariest book she ever read was Salem's Lot by Stephen King. But she said she read it at night, when no one else was awake.
I was just getting to that age where I was trying to prove that I'm all manly and stuff. So I decided I was going to read Salem's Lot, and I was only going to read at night after everyone else had gone to sleep, and I was not going to be scared.
I was wrong. I was so very, very wrong. There were times when I literally had to put the book down because I was getting too scared.
If I went back and read it now as an adult, I doubt it would freak me out so much. But I really don't want to ruin that. It was one of the coolest reading experiences I've ever had.
I'm far behind on my Stephen King. I've been a fan of his films for a long time, but now I'm doing a deep dive into his most classic books. Just finished SALEM'S LOT, his second book and one that has certainly stood the test of time.

Congratulations on your little human and his conquered feat!
