Absolutely straight A's. An excellent book.
"People, especially children, aren't measured by their IQ. What's important about them is whether they're good or bad, and these children are bad." ~ Alan Bernard
"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
Straight A's because this is one of my favorite non-DT books.
"It's his eyes, Roland thought. They were wide and terrible, the eyes of a dragon in human form" - Roland seeing the Crimson King for the first time.
"When the King comes and the Tower falls, sai, all such pretty things as yours will be broken. Then there will be darkness and nothing but the howl of Discordia and the cries of the can toi" - From Song of Susannah
Absolutely. A's across the board. This is among King's finest, and the book I had to thank him for when I got to speak to him face to face. I love it even more since I spent nearly a decade working in a prison and can appreciate some parts of it even more. Excellent tale.
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.

All As, of course. Cannot be anything less. A perfect book. I cried at the end, the only time ever.

Hi Sam

Okay who's the joker that gave this book Cs?
I bought and read the serial novels as they were released. I've never read it in any other format. I loved each installment as it was released and each time looked forward to the next one. I was never disappointed.
A's all around.
"...that Siren which called and sang and promised so much and gave, after all, so little." ~ Ray Bradbury
A, A, and A+++++... for the quality of the ending.
AAB - a really good Book.
I have no specific reasons now... other than I found the story boring, and the characters of no interest to me whatsoever. The end (it took me four years, but I finally finished it) was rather touching, so it's a B, but the rest left me totally indifferent; I had to struggle through it; I think it would have made a good short story, though.
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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did you like the movie any better? Have you seen it?
Hm, it wasn't that long of a book, really. I obviously thought it was the perfect length.
one of the great ones...uplifting, heartbreaking, terrifying, beautiful
AAA, no doubt
i say A+ too

Go, Mile! Hopefully, it can move into the Top 10 for Round 3.
