This is one of my top King books. Don't know how anyone couldn't love it.
I think one of the reasons I may love it so much is because of King reading the audio book. It was so personal and real!!
I was took--hook line and sinker.

I'll have to pick that one up sometime. I read the book ages ago and want to reread it, but I just don't have the time right now. I should just grab the audiobook and listen to that.
Its amazing Heather--King is Mike Noonan

With so many of you guys whose opinions I respect speaking so highly of Bag of Bones, methinks I should give it another go at some point. Maybe when I finish the Sgt. Pepper book.
yes, r of g, give it another try. I personally loved this book.
Lalalalaaaa, lalalalaaa

with the exception of lisey's story, bag of bones is SK's most relationship driven book and it is dead on and the characters are so real. emmy was the same age as ki when i first read it and the resemblance was uncanny.
People love frozen yogurt. I don't know what to tell you.
What? That's not enough?

Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to say that BOB dragged for me. Not quite boring to the point of tears, but my eyes were welling up.
I felt that way about Cell.

I read Cell by the pool in Maui. It was the perfect read for being on the Island in February. Not a great book, but no worry if it got wet at the wade up and sit down bar.
Not to mention that on vacation I HATED cell phones and left mine in the room.
I really, really was disappointed by that book.

the only reason I liked it so much was because of its connection to the dark tower, that's it, take that out and replace it with something equally as weird and I would have stopped reading mid-book

I wrote this book off early on and stopped the first time, but I picked it back up this week and now am on page 500, and its really picking up.
Its very different from alot of king ive read, but i dont think thats a bad thing anymore

Its an amazing ghost story for sure. I just really identify with Mike Noonan for some reason.
