Christine is another classic, well worth a read and watch.Dolores Claiborne and Misery are two of King's very best.
The Nameless
M-O-O-N - That spells Nameless
Dolores claiborne may well turn out to be one of his best, but when I'm looking for my next read, the theme/synopsis isn't something that's going to make me want to read it ahead of something like the talisman, under the dome, needful things or the green mile - all of which I still haven't read (and many more). As for misery, I generally don't like books with a very small cast of characters, and I need a protagonist I can root for. Misery has 2 major characters and they're both d*cks. If I ever do give misery another try it will be when I've read everything else.Dolores Claiborne and Misery are two of King's very best.
Got my 50th birthday present t-shirt on.
Finally got a copy of the stand 1st edition. Been wanting one for awhile but wanted a real nice copy. The ones I deemed were nice always cost 750 plus. Didn't really want to go that high. Finally got one at 470 so pretty jacked right now
Just picked up the dark tower, complete concordance revised and updated, hardcover by Robin furth. Got it for 40 bucks. Pretty fair price. Still in print by cemetery dance. U can get it there for 60 plus ship so I think I got a good deal. Even though I will put this with my higher end books, I will definitely read this one. Usually cemetery dance books, rare 1st editions ect I don't read just to keep binding nice and tight and don't risk any wrinkles or such on the dust jacket which I always do no matter how careful.
It's a great reference and, for us DT nuts, just fun to read through. Good catch!
Today I came home with issue #2 & #3 of The Dark Tower: The Drawing Of The Three- Bitter Medicine comic books.
3rd purchase in 10 days. Wife is so happy. Just got cemetery dance full dark no stars. This has been on my radar for awhile. Now to get what I always considered her sister, from a buick 8 cemetery dance
...good stuff!...mine are auto shipped from TFAW.com....Things From Another World...a great comic and collector site...
Got thinner, uk limited 30th anniversary book with slipcase. Dust jacket in my opinion, is one of the most nicest I've seen. Beautiful. 4 books in two weeks. On a roll. This one was a birthday present though so no heat from the wife.
Just got End Of Watch for my birthday. Fiance purchased it for me. It's going to be awesome!
Just came home from Costco where I purchased the 'Bill Hodges' trilogy boxed set. Got it for $49.99!! I figure this is probably going to be the cheapest unless it goes on the remainder table at the local B&N, which might be a long shot so that's why I snatched it up! Wouldn't it be funny if this set sold so many that it became a bestseller??
Awesome. I had ordered mine. So will be waiting.
I just checked each book and they are true 1st printings. The only thing different is the dj's. They no longer have the individual ISBN and barcodes on the back, plus they share the Smiley Face:
...is that a special edition SK Airwick?......
Of course! It's called Corpse.

What does the box look like? I'll have to pick this up, if it's different than the cemetery dance version.
