maderr: (Zoro Reading)

Not as good as his other stuff, but I really liked it. I love surviver stories, at least when done by King.

Not as horrifc as his others, but I'm not exactly chill either.

And, of course, 2/3 through the book I called my mother on my cell to ask if she noticed the Raggedy Man ref. If anyone can tell me who in The Stand called Randall Flagg that, I would be most grateful.

In that, King is, as ever, very cool. His novels all connect in some way, shape or fashion. I love it.

As my parting note, before I go to bed 1.5 hours past my bedtime:

Clay + Tom + Jordan = OT3 and there is no way you can argue that one. Most cannon I've ever seen. Thank you and good night.

I have yet to read this, and it's killin' me.

Wanna know something? Stephen King makes for good snow-reading.

Chilly as Hell? Yes I am.

Anyway, *heart* Mr. King can write some damn good fiction, but my heart still lies with Mr. Cormier (may he rest in peace), even if he would be classified as teen-fiction. (Teen fiction, my ass. What kind of teen fiction puts incest, racism, and pedophilia in the same book, and still manages to keep plot, let alone, supernatural plot? Genius, I tell you.)
