Straight As again. One of King's best collections.
Straight B's. There are some great stories and some less than great stories.
I do not own this book, I borrowed it a long time ago.
I remeber I very much enjoyed it. So A~ B ~A it is, as I can recall.
The answer is within
all matter is energy, all energy is GOD
A, B, A from me, as well.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”-Mark Twain
Listen to the mustn'ts, child. Listen to the don'ts. Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the won'ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me....Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.

My thoughts, my grading.Originally Posted by R_of_G
This gets an A-B-A score from me. Lots of good stories, but not everyone was a hit.
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.

ABB, Stories were entertaining, but few of them stayed with me very long. When the movie for 1408 came out, I had to reread, because I didnt remember.
All B's.
Yes. I count All That You Love (no big surprise here), That Feeling and Lunch among the great ones, and found 1408, Bullet and Lucky Quarter quite good, but I am afraid I already forgot most of the rest.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so in love with SK's short stories and this collection is my favorite so far (haven't read my copy of Just After Sunset as I'm on a Harry Potter bender right now) From first to last I found the stories in this set to be just delectable.
Straight A's again.
Absolutely straight A's for me. I recently reread this and fell in love with it all over again.

"You needn't die happy when your day comes, but you must die satisfied, for you have lived your life from beginning to end and ka is always served." ~ Roland Deschain
I love well-written short stories. Straight A's.

I just realized, when I voted for this, I was thinking of Hearts In Atlantis! Any way my vote could be undone?
Have you heard of people with short fuses? Well, I have no fuse at all, and there's a thousand could testify to it if I hadn't stilled their tongues for good.
You can't ignore my girth.
What should your vote be, B-Rag? And how did you vote in each category, so that I know where to deduct the votes from?
I think I voted B, B, B. I'd rather it be A, C, B.
Thanks!

All right, all fixed. Thanks for letting me know.
ABA for me.
Still loved it, though.
This makes me want to reread it.
