(Book) Four Past Midnight by Stephen King
I like short story novels – they seem to go pretty fast and I adore Stephen King. I always wonder what goes on inside his head when he’s writing, ya know? I love that each of these stories has a note from him telling about how the story came about. It was very interesting how one single image or thought can transform itself!
The Langoliers – I remember seeing this on TV a while back and it was pretty well done, but the book, as usual, puts it to shame. Very interesting story. I like reading about time travel, but most of it falls into sci-fi, which I don’t care for, so this was my kind of story!
Secret Window, Secret Garden – I saw this movie a while back. Johnny Depp played the main character (yum!). I thought the movie was very well done and it successfully creeped me out – even though I knew the “twist” – it wasn’t hard to figure out. The story was well done as well. What I loved about this story was how King is able to bring these characters to life. You SEE Shooter and can HEAR him…
The Library Policeman – Stephen King has made me a little leery of clowns and those cars that you can start with your keyring… now, I may never go to the library again… dude, if I see some old woman who is obsessed with me getting my books back in time, I’m high-tailing it out of there. Great story!
The Sun Dog – Good premise, but I didn’t like Cujo or any of those other “attack of the wild animals” books, so it just didn’t do it for me… oh well…
