A riveting start; I'm totally addicted.

I had to reread this after watching season 1 of the show. Love the show, and I had to see if I am remembering right about certain events in the book. It's gonna be hard not to purchase season 2...I don't know if I can wait a year for it so show up on Netflix.

This might be King's best collection of short stories. I might have to reread all of them to verify ; )

I didn't even mean to start reading this. I snagged this ebook when I noticed how inexpensive it was. I haven't read this collection since it first came out, so I knew I'd be rereading at some point. I cracked the cover, and I haven't picked up anything else since. I'm blown away by how good these stories are. Powerful, concise writing packed with emotion, this collection is a master at work.

Absolutely could not resist this on the book shelf.

I've always had a soft spot for Carver since I partly grew up in Yakima and he writes a lot about Central Washington. I've always loved his poetry, and this volume is a perfect way to revisit his life's work. I'm hoping his collected short stories are digitized soon as well.

This is the third or fourth time around, this time with my four-year old. The magic takes still takes hold immediately, as pitch-perfect and fine a beginning as one could hope for in any story.
