Now we do the happy dance of geekery!

So, hubby is almost done with his military school thing in Georgia, and then he goes to Ohio for a few weeks to visit family but he doesn't want to take all his uniforms and crap with him on the motorcycle, so he mailed them to me. Big box. Arrived today ( Read more... )

personal, lj

Stephen!King!love! I just got through reading one of his - 'Cell' - this morning, actually. How weird. But, aw, that was really nice of your husband. ^_^

And I thought I'd just never noticed that 'location' thing before. ^__^ Good to know it's new.

Dude! 'Cell' is the book that hubby sent me! *g* Which makes sense, I guess, since it's King's newest novel, but still. Spiffy.

*adds Cell to reading list* I'm in the middle of the Green Mile, myself. Is Cell any good?

So far it is; reminds me a little of The Stand, what with the whole end of the world and band of survivors finding each other thing. I'm only about a chapter in, though.

Ah, The Stand. I remember that one...It was good.

Well, when you're more than a chapter in, I'd like a review. King usually writes good books, but some just put me off. (Like Misery)

Sure, I can come up with a review if I ever get time to actually finish the book. Also, you didn't like Misery? I thought it was okay; not his best, and at the end the psycho nurse was like a villian from a horror movie who will not die no matter what, but it had good bits.

Personally I love Firestarter and Rose Madder, Wizard and Glass (Dark Tower 4) and one of his Bachman stories, Thinner, and... well, really a lot of his stories.

Aw that is so sweet of him. ♥

Isn't it though? *g* Now if I can just find time to read it, it'll be great.

Oooh. I didn't know there was a new Stephen King book out either. How spiffy! Not that I can afford hardback prices right now anyway. I'll probably have to wait till it comes out in paperback, or check it out of the library. But still. :)

Emily :)

You know, it didn't occur to me to check the price because hubby spends money like water anyway, but according to the jacket it's about $27. Which is a lot, for a book! Yeah, I'd go the library route myself, that's what libraries are for. ^_^
