Only 75 more pages left of Carrie. It's short but I think its excellent. Than on to The Stand. That looks like it will be the longest book I've ever tackled.

You'll wish it was even longer. I always do.

That's what I like to hear

[Tiggnutz]

Is this the right time to start reading the Stand

[Headhunter]

I was already reading a lot in recent months. Gonna be pumping those numbers up even more now.

[Tiggnutz]

Finished Carrie liked it alot.

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Though it was short, Caliban Cove was pretty lame I started dragging my feet reading it, so I finally finished the other day and now onto Dark Tower 4.5: The Wind Through The Keyhole.

If you didn't like Wizard & Glass due to the halt in plot development, I'd recommend skipping Wind Through the Keyhole. It was written after the series was done and is pure backstory.

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Yep I'm aware it was written after the fact. It's also much much shorter than Wizard & Glass, so I don't feel like I'll be as annoyed.

[Tiggnutz]

Finally finished Diamonds are Forever. This was a steep drop in quality from the previous 3. I liked the Tiffany Case character but little else.

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Man, I haven't done any reading since I started Wind Through The Keyhole. Not that I"m not into it, just my mind won't let me focus on just reading. Hope it's just a phase.

I couldn't get through the first page of The Stand I'm just not ready having a much easier time with comics

[Tiggnutz]

Read the first 40 pages of The Stand today. Eerie how it mirrors our current situation.

[Tiggnutz]

More than 100 pages read today loving it so far

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Is this your first time going through The Stand?

[Tiggnutz]

Is this your first time going through The Stand?

Yeah first time reading. I watched the miniseries once in the early nineties but all remember was a guy riding a bomb

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Oooh, then you're in for a treat. Like the miniseries, the first half is better, but it's still my favorite book.

[Tiggnutz]

300 pages into The Stand and just met Trashcan. Incredible book so far.

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Totally forgot about Wind Through The Keyhole...

Yeah...I'm not into it at all. The shift to first-person perspective is a strong dislike too. Not a fan of 1st person, and I'm usually okay when King does it, but feels wrong here.

It's a completely unnecessary book, so don't feel bad if you skip it.

Finished all 9 novels in the James Ellroy-verse, now waiting for my copies of Don Winslow's Cartel trilogy, which I've heard are incredible.
