Review:I can't call this book a typical King's book. The book discription can mislid you to think there's a connection to "It" but it doesn't. the book is about dealing with the past and the present. the book is about a trip gone bad when everyting goes wrong. But in my opinion the book is about King's fighting his own demones. Like in every king's book you can find a character who resamble himself ,and here one of the characters had a resent accidant (like King) and by that his diffrent from everyone ... Read more

Review:While I'm not a rabid Stephen King fan, I do enjoy his works & have read enough of his fiction over the years to give a fairly decent review of these stories.

Willa: The author admits to being overfond of this story since it was a trial run at getting back to short fiction. I think its well done and only falters in the creep-factor everyone seems to expect from King. It seems if this were from someone we'd never heard of, we'd all be terribly impressed & moved, but since its fr... Read more

Review:I really, really tried to make it to the end.
I made it through 450 pages. Then my
teeth started to fall out and I had a compulsion
to go out in the yard and start digging!!!! This was
pretty silly and redundant. Same, same, same, page
after page after page after page. Probably could have
boiled away all of the excess and ended up with a decent
book of about ?? 200 ?? pages or so. This book should
have been beamed to ALTAIR-4. Read more

Review:I've never been much of a horror fan, especially of the hack-n-slash genre, but Stephen King's works are generally different because of the plausibility factor. The characters are (generally speaking) normal people involved in something with otherworldly origins.
Founding the story in reality serves to heighten the impact of the supernatural, turning the contrast knob all the way over. In Rose Madder's picture, the reader finds it opens a door in Rosie's heart and mind as much as it does he... Read more

Review:A fine examination of the nature of evil, and why it seems to congregate in certain places and in certain people. A sequel to the novel "The Talisman," this is a piece that relates to King's Dark Tower series, the Jupiter of his novels, connecting them - and corrupting them. Jack Sawyer is older, wiser, and his memories of the Teritories are coming back at the same time that a serial killer terrorizes western Wisconsin. This is a brilliant collaboration, weighted and uplifted by the two decad... Read more

Review:When I started reading this book it really caught my attention. The story goes into a very elaborated description of creepy events. I couldn't stop reading because it was very interesting; However, as I got to about 3/4 of the way from finishing this story, the plot unfolded into a wild sequence of unnatural events. It really caught me off guard and the ending was a bit disappointing, not in the sense that I wanted a specific character to win or anything, but how incredibly fictitious it got. I ... Read more

Review:Stephen King's most recent novel was perhaps his worst. The story is more of a series of stories all reflecting upon a rather dull, old, Buick which, frankly, isn't scary. The flat plot gradually leads to vapid climax and finally an ending which cannot even satiate the reader's longing to discover some information about the curiously entriging Buick. Instead of suspence and terror, King points out the human proclivity to inquire about the unknown and question questions that cannot be answered. T... Read more

Review:Terrific book. Excellent. Certainly kept my attention. Fast paced, lots of action. Kept me reading to find out what happened. Even has a strong female character. The main characters are well developed and very real. To me a book is a great book if I can "see" it playing in my mind as a movie. This one certainly does that.
At the end of the book Mr. Turpin gives many references that one can look up if they want additional historical information. Mr. Turpin puts a lot of research into his nov... Read more

Review:Up until two days ago, I had never heard of Carlton Mellick III and his work. That all changed when my Facebook wall was bombarded by countless posts about his book, The Haunted Vagina. I'll admit, the title drew me in, the cover hooked me, and after going back and forth in the comments section of one of those posts, I just HAD to check this book out.

When I first made my way to the book's Amazon page, I noticed two things; first, the book is 100 pages long and second, the cost for the Ki... Read more

Review:El amor huele a café es un libro que realmente me atrapó. Muy bien escrito. Describe de una manera fresca la forma en la que estos personajes, entrelazados entre si, viven, sufren y encuentran el amor. Pienso que el final es majestuoso y Nieves logra que quedes con muchas ganas de leer el siguiente libro. Read more
