    Episode 3 Other Voices Other Rooms

    Ok, this is the first episode I didn't care for. I guess messing with the time travel/Derry timeline didn't bother me, but I'm bothered about the differences in Jodie (so far). And I don't like Bill being there but I get that Jake needs a companion so he's not just self narrating all the time...

    Easter Eggs and such

    I thought it'd be fun to have a thread about the Easter Eggs that show up in the tv movie of 11/22/63. JJ Abrams used to drop them in LOST all the time, and I've heard this series will have them too. Blackboard in the adult education class: The Lurker at the Threshold HP Love craft and August...

    Going to Maine

    My friend and I are going to do the SK tour in Maine and we are planning our trip. Flying into Boston and driving up. Where should we stay? What else should we do?

    Insights about this book and the 60's

    My daughter is writing about the 60's (specifically Vietnam) for her history class and she is supposed to pick a book that represents the era. She is using Hearts (all of the sections). I would love it if fans of the book and those who lived through the 60's would chime in with their thoughts.

    Finished it in record time (spoilers possible)

    My goal was to take my time with this one, I was unsuccessful:flat: I feel like a glutton I tore through this book. It was I'm studying to be a Speech Pathologist and there were many tiny details that sucked me in. It was well written, I liked Charlie greatly ahh maybe even because...

    Only if you've finished it *SPOILERS*

    If you haven't finished it get out of this thread, I can't promise I will be able to remember to do the spoiler tags and I want to TALK about the book!!! That being said, well what did you think? I finished it yesterday (Amazon Kindle). For me it was good, just good. I can't see myself...

    Why the WEST?

    One thing with The Stand that I often think about upon re-reading it, is how/why people who weren't necessarily EVIL went to the West. Were they deficient in some way? More deficient than Larry (who was "not no nice guy" for some of his life)? These are the things I think. Why didn't they...

    I could google but Meh....

    What was the year span between Wastelands and Wizard and Glass? Is torturous a measurement of time?

    One night

    I read this in one sitting, one summer night in college. I think I picked it up around mid afternoon and the next thing you know I was done (bawling my eyes out, and the birds were chirping and my roommates were getting up for work). :sleeping:

    The age to start

    My son Ben is 14, I'd love to get him started on The Dark Tower Series. He's a fast and advanced reader and he will have no problem with the depth and breadth of the series. I hesitate though because I wonder how he'll handle the violence and what sex there is. Also once he starts with Mr...

    Hearts is really terrifying

    I found the title story to be really scary. I am so impressed with the way SK made flunking out of school a literal nightmare. I'm too young to comment on Vietnam in an intelligent way, but man that story was scary!

    SK caused me to not get into grad school

    That title gets your attention doesn't it? Here is my background: I discovered SK in High School (first book was Thinner). I enjoyed his stories, started out slow, can't even remember what else I read but my sophomore year in college I got a SK calendar for Christmas. It had wonderful obscure...
