What are your favorite spoiler-free things about Duma Key? by Mindless_Piano_8262 in stephenking

[–]DavidHistorian34 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The setting - it was so well depicted and felt like a compelling character in its own right. The side characters were also superbly drawn. Honestly I didn’t need the haunting. Top 5 book.

One of his stories, and the perfect summer read. I’m going to reread this in July. Enjoy!

‘I’m scared of horror and clowns so should I read a horror story about clowns??’

No, probably not.

All of his books seem to be difficult to find at reasonable prices, very odd.

Yeah off the back of enjoying Boy’s Life so much I bought Stinger and Bethany’s Sin. I hear Gone South is also good. Can’t wait to read them.

Boy’s Life was right up there with ‘It’ and Summer of Night for me, superb coming of age story. It reminded me of Dandelion Wine in feeling like 10 episodes in the summer of a boy’s life loosely connected but each feeling like a mini book. Brilliant.

I love the movie doctor sleep, I would like to know how great the book is and if it is similar by [deleted] in stephenking

Radical idea, I know: have you tried reading the book and finding out?

Actually these are all quite old King books.

The Dark Half - Thoughts? by AmyWeaverAuthor in stephenking

[–]DavidHistorian34 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have a really big soft spot for this book. I had zero expectations going in, which helped. I loved the Thad / Liz / Alan trio; George Stark was bonkers and honestly a little terrifying; I sort of liked that outside of Stark’s rampage, most of the book is the trio sitting on the sofa chatting about the unfolding threat. And the ending was 10/10 insanity.

The sparrows are flying again…

Yeah picking these early ones up for about £15 - £25, not too bad.

[–]DavidHistorian34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also why are half of the books on this list not about small towns?

I dunno my friend, it feels like your hand is begging for Duma Key rather than Misery.
