This review is more of a review for all of the installments not just the 6th.
Being that this was the first book/books that I read by Stephen King, I have to say I expected quite a bit. I have to say I underestimated how insane and intense his books are. The first two parts I have to say were definitely not my favorite, I was a little bored. Now that I finished I understand why you kind of needed that background story to fully understand this complex story. With that being said , I rea More...

I think I did this whole series in record time; no way would I have finished it so quickly if it had been bound all together, I don't think. So I guess I can't bitch about the serial thing, though I'm still glad I didn't have to wait a month for each one to come out.
A satisfying ending, I thought. All the loose ends got ties neatly up in as believable a fashion as one could expect, given what had transpired before. I had *totally* forgotten about what Paul was doing in the shed at t More...

I read this set when it was first released and the thing I remember most is waiting each month for the next volume to be released, ruahing to the book store to grab a copy up and finding a quiet corner where I would be left alone. The story itself is one of my favorites, examining the full range of the human experience, right and wrong along with love and compassion. As far as I was concerned John Coffey could have been the second coming of Christ (if you believe in such things) and once again

Hoo boy. If you're looking for a good cry, you'll probably get one reading this. I thought I was okay after the first heart-wrenching scene, but two or three more after that really got me going. But in a good way. The ending is reasonably satisfying, and kind of thought provoking. After all, since it's told in first person it's impossible to know for sure what happens to the narrator after the story is finished, and that kind of open-endedness is sort of neat for this sort of tale.

The Green Mile as a whole was one of the most wonderful and heartbreking novels I've evr come across. Stephen King has a way of making this book seem realistic in its ending. It's a tearjerker, no doubt, but in the end you'll feel satisfied; you'll feel as though this is life.
Another brilliant book by King, written extremely well and will keep you on the edge of your seat from page one of book one.
Make sure you have all the books at hand when you start!

I read them as they came out, and if I were to recommend anyone to read this I would highly suggest they read it the same way I did - one month apart. I would fly through the pages and just waiting to read the next one was such a thrilling experience. I'm glad King decided to do a serial novel, even if it is the only time he will ever do one. Excellent book.

I loved this series! This just gives me another reason to love Stephen King and his genius. And of course, throughout reading this I've had the urge to make some toast. This was a very magnificent story. And I'm so glad I got them at an old book store. Even if they're old and beaten up, they're also first editions. I'm planning to watch The Green Mile movie at the end of the week as well, I heard it was pretty good. Another edition to my favorites, I'll have to admit!

I am so glad this concluded so strongly. I was not disappointed with the progression of the story at any point. Now I have to watch the movie again to see how faithfully they kept to the story. From what I recall, it was pretty spot on. Not a surprise, then, why I liked the movie so much. With a story this involved, it needs a lengthy telling to be done justice.

The last of the series and the conclusion of the Green Mile contains the death of the "killer."
The only thing I did not like about the series was having to wait for the next one to come out.

The whole experience of reading each of these books was amazing. Have to read Mr. King's introduction to understand. It was a one of a kind experience to read these as they were released, knowing that with the first book, he had not yet written the last.

A fitting and almost powerful end to the story. The conclusion (to both John Coffey and our insight into Paul's struggles) are telegraphed to the reader, so there is little to surprise us, but it was a satisfying conclusion none the less.

Una novela por entregas buenísima!
Una historia muy original, tierna, misteriosa y a ratos dura.
No me extraña que la película (bastante fiel al libro) sea tan buena.

Oh, I was so sad while reading it. I even cried, reading the book and when I saw the movie.
It is too bad the book doesn't have a happy ending in the literal sense of the word here. On the other hand: the way the story goes it is quite logical and it would be disappointing if there were a forced good end.
Since the story is about Coffey, it ends with him, but it would also be interesting to know how the story of the other characters goes on. Well, maybe we'll meet them again in More...

There are not enough words for how much I love this series. I read it in serial form when it was originally published, and after the first installment, I'd be at the bookstore when it opened on the day each chapter was released. Maybe I'll sit down and read it all at once now that there's been a wonderful movie adaptation as well.

This is the last of six parts. I saw the movie, long ago. This was written and released in six parts. So, if you read it when it came out, you had to wait. I tried to read it like that, just for the experience. Verrry cool story, better than the movie.

I like Stephen King's novels, he is a master story teller and there is often, and clearly here, a sense of fundamental basic right and wrong and human decency. Decency doesn't always win but it does leave a lasting impression.

Absolutely amazing! Ten times better than the movie. I sometimes forget just how brilliant King can be.
