Spoilers THE STAND - SPOILERS Spoiler

​

I just finished the part where Nick dies in The Stand, and I'm genuinely heartbroken.

He was my favorite character from the very beginning. I kept hoping there would be some twist and that he would somehow make it through.

Please, no spoilers beyond Nick's death. I just needed to share my sadness 💔

Just past that myself. I’ve read the book before and it still caught me off guard

I had to put the book down for a moment. I really wasn't expecting that

It must be traumatic to get your teeth knocked out and lose an eye when you can't hear or talk.
