I love Stephen King. I most particularly love his short stories.

I love Stephen King too, he is easily one of the best writers of our times. They are supposed to be doing a big screen movie for The Stand, I'm looking forward to that. Lissie's Story was the last great book of his, right now I'm reading Duma Key.

How do you like it? It's on my "to-read" list (which is a mile long).

So far it's pretty good so far! It's a mostly character driven story. I enjoyed the "It" tie in, because it is one of my favorite King stories. I got the book on loan from a friend and the font is huge! It took some getting use to, though I still don't like it. Someday really soon I'll have to go digital because I've been out of book space and stacking the things in piles for a couple of years now (LOL) and font size won't be an issue.

I ran out of book shelf space years ago, and have gone almost entirely digital. I will purchase a book if I really enjoy it on the Kindle/iPad/whatever. I'll definitely purchase it if I decide I want to use it in a class (I teach writing). It's nice to be able to adjust the font, and to carry multiple books with me wherever I go.

I may have to move this book higher on my "to read" list.
