I did it! I finally did it!

[Dana Jean]

I know I may not be the only one to reach this milestone here, but I couldn't think of a better place to share this news: After finishing "If it bleeds" I just finished reading all of Stephen king books ( novels, collections and non fiction, 77 in total, if I'm not mistaken). What do I do now? (apart from re-reading a few, which I have already done)? Do I unlock a secret novel only available to those that have come this far? Do I hire a someone to hypnotize me and make me forget all the books so I can reread them again?

Just to share: My first book was "The girl who loved Tom Gordon" and my favorite is probably "Lisey's Story" =]

Welcome!

....welcome!......if a black Rolls Royce should pull up by your home, and possibly drop a DVD in a plain brown wrapper....MAYBE, you'll get your answers....that, or Publishers Clearing House has gotten straight up weird.....

I missed that one!

 

[The Nameless]

Welcome, and congratulations. Although I own almost everything (I dont have the baseball non fiction stuff and 1 or 2 stand alone short stories) I can't imagine ever reading it all.

Maybe you could reread the ones you didnt like so much. Sometimes people find a new appreciation for things a 2nd time around.

I remember I made a joke a while back to Marsha, something about Steve becoming the manager of the Red Sox.

I know pretty much nothing about baseball but at least I know more than that one time my friend thought Babe Ruth was the baseball player who was a significant figure in black history and both his mom and I told him that was Robinson lol

Marsha: Is this on topic?

If you have to ask yourself if it's on topic, it probably isn't. There's a music thread and two general discussion threads

Congrats. I don't believe Ms Mod has even done that.

Ms Mod doesn't like horror novels. I mean, who does. Certainly not me.

The name of the book is FAITHFUL and was co-written with author, Stewart O'Nan. It's about the 2004 Red Sox season when they won the baseball World Series after 86 years since their last championship.

Is it a thing in the US for guys to like a Baseball team not from thier state? Steve is from Maine but he follows a team from Mass, does Maine not have a major Baseball team?

 

[Kurben]

Well, congrats to you! Quite a thing to do. I'm almost there but have not read Faithful since my interest in baseball is zero nor Guns. Then there is, i know, a few uncollected shortstories i havent read but otherwise i think i have read all his fiction.

No, it does not have a major league baseball team but it does have a minor league one in Portland. The Sea Dogs are a Double-A affiliate of the Boston Red Sox. To the best of my knowledge, the only major league sports teams of any type in New England are all located in MA.
