Tough, tough call. In the end, though, I had to go with The Green Mile.

So did I. One of my favorite King novels, and really is due for a re-read, I suppose.Originally Posted by Daghain
I just reread it. You won't be sorry.

I hate you for making THIS a choice so early pablo. I hate you.
The Green Mile.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.
Con todo mi corazon, por todo de mis dias. And I always will, in this life and into the next.

wastelands, gotta be -
we meet OY, no book beats that for me
If it makes you feel any better, the seedings were all absolutely random. You can see the complete schedule here.
I love you.
It does NOT help any Pablo. Not. One. Hairy. Bit.
I am saddened to see The Waste Lands has more votes than The Green Mile, but not surprised. This is THE DARK TOWER.com after all.

Waste Lands...by a landslide.
I loved both of these so it was hard to choose, but I had to choose the one I was most likely to read again, and I have read repeatedly the wastelands, but only a few times Green Mile. That's just how it is.

I love you.
The Mile. This reminds me, I really need to reread The Green Mile, and Different Seasons.

I just recently reread The Green Mile and frankly, I'm starting to think this one is in King's top three. God, I love this book.
