    Hanukkah is coming!! Hanukkah is coming!!

    Hanukkah 2017 will begin in the evening of Tuesday, December 12 and ends in the evening of Wednesday, December 20. Just thought I'd start an equal opportunity thread for Hanukkah. I'm not Jewish but last year we did light a menorah each night of Hanukkah with the appropriate prayers and it was...

    Paperbacks from Hell

    I've not read this yet but I am buying the physical book (as opposed to eBook) soon. It looks like one "hell" of a read! Be sure to use the "look inside" feature after clicking the link. Paperbacks from Hell by Grady Hendrix | PenguinRandomHouse.com

    Too Much Horror Fiction web site

    My friend sent me this link. I just glanced at it quickly, but it looks like fun. Too Much Horror Fiction I had this book! It was the book I was really looking for when I first stumbled upon and bought Carrie back in 1975. That's how it all began...

    Dark Tower "sighting"

    I work on 34th St. in New York City. For those not familiar with NYC, this is a big-ass, famous, busy street. That said, right before I turned to go into my building, this pink sign caught my eye.

    20th anniversary e-book edition

    I find these covers to be simply perfect and beautiful. It's a shame they are only available in e-book editions as you can't display them and admire them.

    Catching up

    Hi all. I haven't been on/active for a week or so. We were in CA visiting the in-laws and then Vegas for some much needed rest, relaxation & fun. So here's what's been happening with me (in no particular order) if anyone cares or is curious: Still reading Joe Hill's The Fireman and really...

    Does anyone else NOT enjoy podcasts?

    Or am I the only one? The notice on the main site about SK's recent podcast with Nerdette brought me to post this. StephenKing.com - Recent News: Podcast with Stephen I want to listen to this, I really do, but two recent attempts to listen to podcasts affirmed that I really have no patience...

    Author Alex Clermont

    While this is not promoting me, it is promoting a coworker of mine. He's an aspiring author who is self published. He works hard at promoting himself so I thought I'd give him a hand. His latest book is a collection of short stories entitled You, Me and the Rest of Us: #newyorkstories. I just...

    New(ish?) covers

    I was surfing around the Internet and stumbled on these new (well at least to me) covers. I kind of like them. There's a few more here: New Book Releases, Bestsellers, Author Info and more at Simon & Schuster What do yo think?

    Just stopped by to say...

    Hi to everyone. I know I've been absent pretty much since we got back from our trip, but between being sick with "the cold that will just not go away," catching up at work and just catching up with life in general, the SKMB has taken a back seat for now. I promise I will post some pictures at...

    Is anyone watching Under the Dome any more???

    My husband and I are but honestly, it has really gone off the rails. Like into the abyss. Is this the last season? Does anyone know? Moderator?

    The Summer Haters Club

    This thread is for those of us who are not fans of summer. Me? I can't stand anything above 75 degrees, really. And this humidity (I live in NJ) is unbearable. And it's going to be 95 today... Yuck! I hate summer! So to those who agree, come on in! Membership is free! Just 55 days until the...

    A little late watching this one but finally some answers and the plot is moving forward. Did you all catch

    Season 3, episode 4: Where is this all headed?

    People infected with some disease that makes them followers? Everyone turning against our "heroes?" Seems to me the writers are really grasping at straws this season in a hurry to end it. The best part of this episode? The scenes from upcoming episodes that at least make it look like some...

    Season 3, episode 3: Yaaaaawn

    Did ANYTHING happen in this episode to propel the story forward or make it less confusing??? The only thing of slight interest was when we saw...

    Season 3, episode 2: huh?

    What did you all think? I'm really disliking the added ??? raised with this episode. I am starting to think Big Jim will come out on top when it's all over. He seems to be the only rational one right now. And I dislike the character of Barbie even more this season. Such a smug SOB. And don't get...

    Season 3, episode 1: what did you think?

    I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised by this 2-hour season premier. The acting is still bad and the "scooby doo-ness" of it still irks me, but I thought there was hope for actually tying it all together at some point. Especially when...
