I was reaching the end of the series last night.I knew at the beginning of the day(with about 200 pages left)that I would finish in 1 day.I started the series 2 1/2 years ago.I took many breaks in between for different reasons but I flew through the last two books(do ya ken?)
I am about 100 pages from the end when a massive thunder and lightning storm rolls through at the same time a vicious one is brewing in the book.At this point I am feeling like the kid reading the book in "The neverending Story".I was a little freaked but thought it was a perfect way for the story to sycronize with my "when".I continue reading through the storm and reach the end of this epic tale at around midnight .My mind was spinning after I was done so I went outside to reflect on this epic tale while watching the intense thunder,lighting and downpour but it had stopped just in time....
At this point I wouldn't doubt that I started reading stephen King 19 years ago today although I have no way to confirm this.
I look forward to discussing this story in detail,Long Days and Pleasant Nights.
