Those words are pretty powerful, eh? No wonder Mr. King calls the book "A MASTER".I didn't think I was either, but I might be now.

I'm currently reading The Green Mile. It's been on my to read list for a little while, and I've finally got around to reading it. I finished the first book, and nearly half way through the second. After that, I'll be starting The Stand or IT, I haven't decided, yet.
I finished reading Floating Dragon yesterday and I hate being the only one here who didn't much like it but here I am admitting it to the world 
I got bored with all the thoughts and thoughts about thoughts and more thoughts about thoughts about thoughts and even with all those character's thoughts, I never felt like any of the characters were more than two-dimensional.
I kept reading it just because I wanted to know the reason you-know-who did you-know-what but if the reason was ever stated, I missed it

Nothing to be sad about. Straub was never a big fave with me. The only one of his i fully approve of is Ghost Story.I finished reading Floating Dragon yesterday and I hate being the only one here who didn't much like it but here I am admitting it to the world

Started Dark Matter by Blake Crouch last night. The first chapter was excellent but my eyelids got heavy and I couldn't go any farther. It has a very promising start.
No need to feel shame! Straub isn't for everyone. His books reward multiple rereads, I've found.I finished reading Floating Dragon yesterday and I hate being the only one here who didn't much like it but here I am admitting it to the world

Dark Matter is awesome! One of my favorite reads this year, so far.
Started re-reading Desperation today, as tropical storm Hermine is closing in!! It rained all last night and all day today, but the projected path is just north of me. Nice reading weather, all curled up in my comfy sweats with a cup of coffee, listening to the rain come down.
Nice! Not that anyone is wondering why it's taking me so long to finish Salem's Lot, I'll explain: I have no excuse- better time management is in order. (When I read, my toddler wants to be read to).
We end up switching to Afraid of a Bat! What's Up With That? by local author, Conrad Storrad. It's a great book for kids told through the POV of a bat! 
Just finished Thinner. Thought it was okay.
Just ok? No gypsy pie for you, Mr. Man!
I read Thinner as a child and loved it.Just ok? No gypsy pie for you, Mr. Man!
Chinese Buffet, anyone?
Just got done with Bazaar of Bad Dreams. I'd rate it "okay." 3 out of 5 stars. It's got some great writing mind you, but I've enjoyed some of his other collections a lot more. My last remaining SK book to get through before I return to giving other authors some attention is End of Watch. I'll probably start that over the weekend. I'm currently re-reading Lord of The Rings and will tackle a couple of chapters as a "palate-cleanser" before delving back into more SK.
The Areas Of My Expertise by John Hodgman. Very funny!
Never thought of Tolkien as a palate cleanser!
After Salem's Lot . . I have other books: the fourth Odd Thomas book, a Prayer for Owen Meany to re read, the back to King. I always feel like a dirty cheat when I read other authors.
