Did you like 11/22/63?

Lots of Sookie Stackhouse books! Yum! I haven't gotten caught up on the series yet!

Eh, 11/22/63 was okay. I don't see myself ever rereading it. My sister gave me a whole bunch of older Stephen King books but I have to be in the right mood to read his stuff. I think my favorite King is The Stand, how about you?

I still have the Sookie Stackhouse short story collection to read. I hate waiting for new books to come out in series that I love. A few years ago I read all the Bones novels and have had to impatiently wait for my library to get the new ones in as they are published.

I did pretty good in 2012. My goal was to read 26 new books and I blew that out of the water. This year I will aim for 36. I've already finished 3!

I love almost everything if his that I've read. My favorite is It. I love it's characters and all of their side stories. Plus it's scary!

I've been listening to his stuff on audiobook while I do housework. I loved Pet Semetary, Cujo, and It. 11/22/63 was pretty good but maybe a bit cheesy? I thought Needful Things was just kind of ehh. My iTunes won't let me upload anything so I haven't been able to upload anything. Going through withdrawals. hehe

I think the last Sookie book was the one where she meets her elf uncle? Maybe it was the one after that? Anyways, I think I'm one or two (naybe 3?) books behind?

Yeah, I think you're a few books behind. When I first read the series, I got through book 6 and was on the fence about them. Last year I reread them and I'm really glad I did.

I'm not a huge fan of horror. I don't think I could handle It or Pet Semetary; the movies scared me too much when I was a kid!
