This is a hard book for me to review. It’s got great creepy atmosphere and the mystery at its heart is fun to unravel. At the same time, it’s a hot mess of disjointed reveals, cartoonish villains, unconvincing romance, and a murderous revenant that I felt more sympathy for than almost any other char...

"Bag of Bones" was the last book I read with my father. For those who have followed my blog for a while, you know that he was a huge Stephen King fan along with loving Science-Fiction and Fantasy novels. Once my dad realized how fast I read (he was pretty fast too) he always gave me the new King fir...

Not my favorite King book.I'm actually disappointed. Having read many of his books, and being fans of most, this felt long-winded to me. I wasn't really feeling the ghost story part either. Maybe he should just stick to writing about sickos that are living, I dunno, but this one... UGH!The story fru...

Had you asked me a month ago what I thought of Bag of Bones I might have chuckled and shook my head. I might have told you it is one of the worst Stephen King books there is, that it is easily in my bottom five King reads, down there with such piles of Kingly excrement as Dreamcatcher, Wizard and Gl...

So, I’ve decided that because I’m such a blooming procrastinator and barely remember the said book before I sit down to write the review, I’ll write mini-reviews. I’ll start writing bigger (and better!) reviews when I’m caught up. For those of you that don’t know the plot, I’ll fill you in… Bag ...

(I realized that there are some reviews I've posted other places that never got posted here so I'm going to start moving them over. I'll try not to flood everyone's feeds.) As usual, Stephen King has written a book that you don't want to put down once you've started it and the ending is far more ...

A haunting ghost story with terror, sadness, and love. I finished very early this morning.
