Adventure, danger, and unique characters in a space setting. What more could you want? Excellent prose, that's what. This novel delivers it all. Highly recommended.

"If you need a face to stroke you can use mine. I'm also on revisions under deadline, and it sounds like it would be vaguely reassuring...

| Written in first person from the point of view of a middle aged, uneducated housekeeper, this novel is King's most literary. The voice is pitch perfect, marking King as one of the more convincing ventriloquists I've ever read. I was honestly astounde...more | |

| Very good early King novel. I enjoyed it quite a lot and recommend it. Trying to figure out what it is about King that keeps me coming back, and I think it's his characters. They're people I want to hang out with for several hours, even if I have to...more | |

“[There's] one... thing I can tell you about human nature: beautiful people are the last ones you want to befriend. Beautiful people float through life thinking that it's perfectly normal for others to gaze at them adoringly, and open doors for them, and defer to their opinion... Doesn't anyone understand that beautiful people are stupid? That's why nature made them beautiful, so they'd have a chance at surviving in the wild. And how do they survive? They use people and then they drop people, and they float away on the currents of their own gorgeousness to the next poor girl who thinks that being friends with a beutiful person will somehow make her beautiful, too. I've got news for you: Hanging around beautiful people just makes you uglier by comparison.”

Amy, I've been reading 'Vibes' so far(still am) and I its been a fantastic read from the start. I love the main character, and you got a laugh out of me on the first paragraph. I'm in love with humor from books, so you can tell I'm enjoying 'Vibes'. I would of swallowed up the whole book in one day, but homework has been getting in the way. Anyways, lovin your writing and thanks for the add :) -AlienAmy
