Dolores Claiborne is next up! I don't know if everyone is caught up on the novels, I'm not. Right now, I'm reading Dr. Sleep, and Mr. Mercedes. In other words, where do we leave off? I think the best way to do it is to just leave this thread open for just the novels. That way when he brings out a new book, it will already be set up to do it in order. I'll open a new thread for The Bachman Books, and one for short stories and novellas.
