read in March, 2013
The 8th book in the series and just as awesome as the previous seven. I especially loved the look at Cal and Niko's life as kids. I agree with Robin Goodfellow's thoughts: "I've I'd known . . ."

I'd seen the movie, of course, and thought it was okay. But I finally got around to reading the book. LOVED it! Mr. Jingles both warmed and broke my heart. One of King's best.

I finally got around to the second book and thoroughly enjoyed it. While I'm entertained by the HBO series, I enjoy the books more.
