Thank you!
always a pleasure to help out.
"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
there are quite a few I don't have, I know what I'm buying with my tax money.
I'm re-reading Joe Hill's "Horns", a different book to "Heart Shaped Box" but its still a fantastic read!!!

That sounds interesting. Is it a good collection?
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
Took a few days off after finishing Lisey's Story, tonight, I start Cujo.

I'm in my umpteenth reread of the Harry Potter series. I'm about 3/4 the way through Prisoner of Azkaban. I'd like to finish the entire series before April 20, when King's newest comes out.

It is!That sounds interesting. Is it a good collection?
Just read I am Legend. Good little story. But it begs to be expanded upon. The story itself is short but I envision it as a prequel to something much larger...almost like the Hobbit was to LotR.
I can see that. I really enjoyed it too.

About to start The Name Of The Wind, by Patrick Rothfuss.Lots of recommendations from other fantasy friends to pick this one up.
Elodin: "Tombs is for feckless twits who can't chew their own food. My boy's a Re'lar! He has the feck of twenty men!"
Kvothe: “Books are a poor substitute for female companionship, but they are easier to find.”
Simmon: ”It’s just ointment in case you get burned...but if you mix it with piss, it turns into candy.” Sim’s expression was deadpan. “Delicious candy.”
I am most of the way through a book called The Story of Edgar Sawtelle. And i dig it very much. I picked it up cause i liked the cover, so i kind of judged a book by its cover, i'm sorry to say. but it ended up being a good choice. AND Mr. Stephen King said some nice things about it on the back of the book.
Sounds good. I made a deal with my daughter that I would read the first book in the Sword of Truth series if she would read Pillars of the Earth.
It's good so far, I like my wizards Tolkien but it's working okay.
The kindness of close friends is like a warm blanket
The Dark Tower III: The Wastelands
I'm still working on Crime and Punishment, but have recently started reading On Writing.
I regret leaving my soul
I forgot I needed it, to feel
maybe when I die
I'll just grab it real quick

Just finished Cujo, now I'm reading Four Past Midnight.

Started reading this a few months ago, but just could not get into it. I think I only read about 70 something pages. I'll probably give it another shot sometime soon.
I'm starting to think it's rather pointless to tell what I'm currently reading, as I devour all my books with a high speed.
Anyway, I just finished Counter-Clock World by Philip K. Dick. I haven't read his books before, but I will definitely go and read more.
"...neither the stupid jokes nor the easy surface emotions were the truth of Cuthbert Allgood."
I am just starting Cycle of the Werewolf

I am currently reading the fourth book of The Dark Tower: Wizard and Glass. Loving every line!
