Stephen King's writing is like coming home for me. There's no doubt, it's my comfort zone. This story is no exception.
A coming-of-age tale with a supernatural twist, Later follows Jamie and his struggling single-mother, Tia.
Jamie first discovered his ability when he was just a young boy. He can see things others can't and sometimes it's really scary.
But it is an unchangeable part of himself and he learns the rules of it, as well as how best to live with it.
His mother knows what he can do, but s ...more

My nearly 20 years long waiting is over! Finally some fascinating King book is written in his old style released and made my quirky, loyal fan brain cells dance! As like they say: better late than never ( for this book: better “Later” than his last published books )

Some gifts given are more of a curse than a superpower, although it highly depends on what one makes out of it.

Yes! To ALL of this book!
I'm a life-long SK fan and if he writes it, I will happily read it. There's been a few tiny bumps along the way but not with this book. 𝘓𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳 is total yummy Kingness!

Powerful characters and plentiful scares! Death is always a factor in King novels, but now that he’s writing later in life, it’s become more profound. What it means to live, what it means to die, and what might be waiting in the great beyond was expertly handled in an almost heavenly sense with his feel-good novel Elevation (2018). But if Elevation made you think of Heaven, Later will have you picturing Hell.

Loved this one, couldn’t put it down. Great premise, great writing craft as always. Anytime there is a premise that sparks my imagination and I can easily see other storylines—endless storylines it’s a book I want to stay with and see what happens. I hope King does follow up with other books similar to this one. Loved it.

Overall I liked it. But with reservations.
Uncle Stevie and I go way back. I got that case of Constant Reader, having made my way through most of his impressive catalogue. Our literary love affair was fueled by titans like It, The Shining, 11/22/63, Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption and managed to survive even those clunkers of The Tommyknockers, The Regulators and Insomnia.

This was cray 😜 and I loved it!!
“So yeah, I see dead people. As far as I can remember, I always have. But it’s not like in that movie with Bruce Willis.”
Jamie Conklin sees the dead, only for a few days before they disappear and only in places they lived or loved. On the down side they look exactly as they did when they died, or were murdered.
Usually it isn’t a big deal. It just...is. Until someone finds out about Jamie’s unique ability and tries to use it to their advantage.

Jamie recalls that he was just a toddler the first time his unnatural ability reared its head; in this, his story, he recounts the main situations his ability got him into in is youth. This is another very good piece of suspenseful crime fiction from Mr King who appears to be determined to leave his mark in this genre!

Let’s talk about Uncle Stevie’s latest, Later, shall we?
Later is the third Stephen King novel published by the Hard Case Crime imprint. In HCC’s early days, the founder reached out to him (via his accountant) with a hope and a prayer that he would provide a supportive blurb for their mission to resuscitate the genre of old school pulp-style crime fiction novels. Months passed, and King’s agent eventually got in touch to say he didn’t want to write a blurb for them… he wanted to write a book. Th ...more

If you identify as a Constant Reader, you approach a new King book with a personal reading journey decades in the making. Your first one. Your favorite one. The one that made you fall in love. The one that broke your heart. The book you tell everyone is the worst. The last one you read. The one you’ve read the most. The Top Ten. The Bottom Five.
Sometimes I feel like Constant Readers are the saltiest Stephen King fans there are.
We certainly can be the hardest to please. *Raising my hand*

This was an entertaining story. Certainly not King's masterpiece but one that kept you reading. Jamie Conklin can see the dead, he doesn't know his father, his mum is a literary agent, her friend, she later separates from is a cop, they form a kind of lesbian relationship, there is reference to Dracula and Dickens' Scrooge, we later hear about the ritual of Chüd, it's about drugs and we solve the ultimate secret from Jamie's past. I liked the references to many famous horror flics (Final Destina

I've enjoyed reading Stephen King’s books since I was a teenager. Hell, his books are part of the reason I became a life long reader. That's not to say I love all of his books, he's certainly had his misses (Oh Tommyknockers, I'm not sure if I'll ever finish you, but I'll always leave to marked where I left off just in case). I honestly wasn't that interested in this one. I picked it up entirely because I have this compulsion that I buy all of King's new books even if it's just to save them for

I’m a long-time Stephen King fan and have read nearly everything he’s written. When I heard the details of this novel, it immediately reminded me of “Joyland.” This is another hard crime novel by King and also published by Titan under the ‘Hard Case Crime’ imprint. Well, I loved “Joyland” and so my expectations went high on this one. For me, if you considered “Joyland” a home run, like I did, “Later” is a triple, which slid in just under the tag (baseball’s opening day was yesterday).

"Get busy living or get busy dying." - Stephen King
Stephen King has done it again!
Jamie Conklin just wants a normal life. He is the son of a struggling single mother trying to pay the bills which includes paying for the care facility his uncle is in. He is a good kid but has a special "gift". He can see and speak to the recently deceased. Is this a gift or a curse? This is Stephen King after all, and it is as he writes "a horror story".

He's my favourite author, but I'm certainly not going to be bias here.
I found this one very predictable and repetitive.
When I finished it, I felt like it was incomplete and sloppy.
It's basically a short story padded out into a short novel with thin characters and plot.
(My 56th book I've read of his and this is the 2nd one I've not enjoyed, can't like them all but 2 books out of 56 is good going)

Jamie Conklin, narrator of this novel: “So yeah, I see dead people. As far as I can remember, I always have. But it’s not like in that movie with Bruce Willis.”So seeing dead people is Jamie’s “unnatural ability” that is hinted at in the Goodreads description of this novel. I’m not sure why it’s only hinted at, as the revelation comes in the first few pages, along with the two facts that do, all jokes aside, make the “ ...more
Me, reading those lines: “Okay, but it’s pretty much exactly like that movie.”
This was going to be a full 5 Stars for me, but he just had to put a few people/things in the book I hate so much, that I’m just going to give it a four star. (I inked out those parts) 😃 Anyhoo..
The cover is EVERYTHING!! And I loved the story so much! I loved Joyland too. I haven’t read the Colorado Kid (I just watched that show).
I’m actually wanting to read some more authors that write these hard crime books. Oh!! And I wish I could read those books by that one author that was in the book 😂🤣

4 or 4.5 stars. TBD! But I did really enjoy this. This is the King I LOVE. Full review to come.
Jamie is a young boy with a very special ability, one which his mom encourages him to keep under wraps. I liked this kid. The elderly professor who was "old school" was a keeper, too. The absolute importance of listening comes into play. The "sell by" date takes on additional significance.
It almost feels disloyal to give a measly three stars to this, but it was a true case of liking it but not loving it. I wasn't really expecting to be scared, but it would have been nice. Still and yet, ...more

This new book by Stephen King was just great!
Ranging between a 4 to 4.5 stars!
Later has a bit of everything in a plot that I love about books, and King's books in particular.
✔️ The characters are fleshed out and there’s a mixture of characters to love and hate.
Jamie's Mom was a trip. Who's really the parent?! ha!

Later is considered a horror story, which is usually not a genre I read. But, hey, it’s Steven King. And it was short enough to give it a go.
The premise is that Jamie Conklin has the ability to see and talk to dead people. He makes a point of saying “ not like Bruce Willis”. And dead people must tell the truth. It’s not a problem until it is. Because normally the dead aren’t dangerous and also, they disappear after a few days. But a dead serial bomber defies that “rule”.

I promised myself that in 2021 I would try to write reviews immediately after reading a book and before starting another, so here it is, sooner than LATER. (this time)
Stephen King's latest offering is a good story. There is a wonderful, touching mother-son relationship, a few talking dead people and yes, a horror of a "dead light thing" that shows its ugly face. But, honestly (for me) not the least bit scary. Interesting characters ✅ a bit of mystery ✅ secrets ✅ suspense ✅ AND, did you know.....
