by David Mitchell. Awesome writer, this is the fifth novel I've read from him. I love them all.

I have that on my list to get read this year.


I just read it for the first time this year. I thought it was some of his best writing! I had to pause to re-read sentences and paragraphs over again because they were so good. I'll definitely be re-reading it.
He also did a good job showing what life is like in Florida - hot. Just very hot, haha. We definitely run for the AC and the occasional alligator is still found in a swimming pool.

One of King's very best. You'll enjoy it, I'm sure. Especially Wireman, one of King's funniest characters.
McCammon is excellent, Julia


I looked up Legion and didn't even realize it was the second book in the series. I'll have to check it out.

Oh Andrea you will love this book.


This morning, I finished John Dies at the End.
Now, I'm going to reread The Gunslinger.

Just finished The Exorcist, and what a page-turner! I was somewhat amazed that the movie followed it so closely...then again Blatty did adapt the screenplay as well. The novel did go far deeper into Fr. Karras' attempts to convince himself that there was a purely scientific reason behind Regan's behavior, but of course you can only fit so much into a 2-hour movie.
