I can’t resist a fat Stephen King novel. I found Bag of Bones in our laundry room and dropped everything else in its favor. It wasn’t one of my favorites, but I have no complaints. I tore through all 700+ pages as I usually do with his books.
I also found Cell and I’m sure I’ll get to that soon. But first, a book I’ve been waiting to read for five years. Yesterday I got a galley copy of my friend Brian’s first book — Summer People. Brian’s smart with an intensity I’ve rarely seen and he’s worked harder on this book than I’ve ever seen anyone work on anything. Which is not to say that I anticipate it being a very serious book. Once I’m finished reading it I’ll post about the story, the true story it’s based on, and my experiences with the same.
