From a Buick 8
+ Middle of the road King; it's still fun.
+ Spectacular imagery
What a nightmare this story is! And Stephen King does a breathtakingly adept job of guiding us through it with ease. State Troopers in Pennsylvania encounter a Buick, which is not really a Buick. The horrific and impossible plot is made so incredibly real with King's masterful skill. The plot ...

Gerald's Game
Stephen King
Signet, 1993
Ruth Neary is awesome!
+ Geralds Game
I have read several reviews of this book and the one negative statement that keeps popping up is the fact that a good portion of the story takes place with Jessie alone and handcuffed to the bed.

Hearts In Atlantis
Stephen King
Pocket, 2000
Odd yet mesmerising reading
+ Not Free SF Reader
+ LOW MEN PART OF DARK TOWER SAGA
This reading, which is also the Audible reading, may take some getting used to. Stephen King does relatively little acting here, while William Hurt apparently does none at all, yet by the end of the book I thought it was one of the finest dramatic readings I had ever heard.
Unlike what you may ...

+ Neat character study

With books like this one from King , you do much better reading the thoughts in the minds of the characters. This one will keep you up at night reading. Another one that i loved. I highly suggest this one.

Scared the ---- I don't drive at night anymore.....
+ Audio enhances the story....
+ This was a great time
I remember listening to this audio CD about a year ago on the way home from a friend's home in the back country late at night. I figured what harm could there be... it's about cats... what could Stephen King do there? Who was I kidding?! Suffice it to say, it was the scariest drive home I've ...
