I'm actually reading her backwards because I read Atlas Shrugged first. (Gave it 3 stars.) But since I'm reading The Fountainhead, it says something already, doesn't it? 100 pages into it and so far I like it.

I loved the Fountainhead, it brings out the good in people even under tough time to be who they are no matter what others or society tell them. Atlas Shrugged just for me went on way to long, not as great of a book, but better for times like these.

That's great, Rachel. I love re-reads...especially one's that stand the test of time, as this one clearly does!

Yay, Dustin! I know how it feels to finally finish something that you've been working on for awhile. I just might have a party after I finish Les Miserables! It's only taken me over a year! lol

Yeah..ONLY a year, huh, Kathy!?!

I know, I know. Crazy, huh? It's just so dense....I kept having to take vacations. lol.


Crap. Now you're going to get ahead of me and finish the series before I can. I'm going to have to get a move on.
*I must finish Wizard and Glass this weekend*

I know the feeling. I was just giving you a hard time, Kathy!

I know, Dustin. I've just been pretty frustrated w/ my progress w/ it. Great story, but a challenging read. Mr. Hugo definitely likes to hear himself talk. (So to speak. lol)
Hooray! I just finished the Dark Tower Series (all in January) Which was a huge goal of mine! Now I'm off to "Hearts in Atlantis" since my husband has been nagging me to read it :D

That is a big accomplishment. I have been reading them intermittently for last few months and I'm only just finishing up #5. I could have probably done it in two months but not one. Good for you.


I hope in the movie, they still have Anthony Hopkins reprising the role.
Now, Kevin. If I just told Bondama she might want to flag her comment for spoilers, is it really a good idea to quote that comment and then add to the spoiler by spoiling it more? That said, I agree with you. But it's still a spoiler.

I LOVED it!!! Now it's time to work on the dark tower related books, I've already read a few and my husband started hounding me about several others while I was reading the DT series, but I cannot skip around in reading books or I start getting things mixed up.

Yes, there are numerous connections! That's why it's called the Stephen King Universe.

Even though I didn't plan on it, I'm going to continue on the journey with Song of Susannah.

***Possible Spoiler***
I was really blown away by the connection to Salem's Lot at the end of Wolves of the Calla.
