    I have 50 pages left in Dark Tower 7. I started the Gunslinger on Jan. 1st and now I'm almost done with Book 7. Next is wind Through the Keyhole, just found it in paperback at a thrift store. Oh and I squeezed Little Sisters of Eluria in there and finished that too.... quick read on that one...... Prior to starting the Dark Tower, I finished up last year by reading The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo Series. The first 150 pages were brutally slow but once I got into it, I was walking into a book store finishing Book 1 to buy book 2 and the same with Book 3. Stieg Larrson did a great job with those.

    Agree! The beginning of Dragon Tattoo was painfully slow.

    Sadly, I had to put down The Brothers Karamazov, as much as I was enjoying it, because it was too much of a distraction from other things I've had to do the past two weeks. And it's just sitting there, begging to be read and I have to resist it daily!

    I've had this on my shelf since 08; I wish I had gotten around to it sooner. The storyline has me rethinking my opinion on the traditional fantasy fixtures--elves and dwarves--and considering the fact that I can throw out madeup races with unique names and still have a readable story. The tone is fairly gritty; a dwarven-built war dragon crashes in a fey village. Our protagonist, Will, is one of the few who can touch the dragon. Will's halfhuman, and that human blood allows him to touch iron without being burned. So Will becomes a sort of Chosen for the war dragon.

    I like Swanwick's style because he has yet to bog himself down with extraneous details about the novel's setting.

    Finished Dark Tower 7 a couple days back,,,,,, not super clear on that ending or sure that I liked it but have been in a bit of a fog from broken back incident and layed up in the hospital bed, I'll probably have to reread the last half of that again but i'm giving it a rest......
    2 days ago I started 11/22/63 and am on page 250+, Can't put it down.
    On the plus side, By the time I'm done with it, I should have a huge box showing up from Shannon's sale that will keep me busy for a while

    he he, i'm still on "IT" actually and the reason it's taken me so long is really simple, some days i work night shift others i don't. and plus sometimes i don't feel like reading as well. or i'm just to damn tired to read. also i've been watching the show 'Revenge' downloading episodes i've missed this season. but to be fair i'm about halfway done with it now. i'm now #538 pages into it. which isn't bad i think. for me it's pretty damn good at least in the past couple years anyways. i dunno what i'm going to read next, i may read joyland but i need to buy it 1st. one to read the other not to.

    and i read a little tonight. but mostly i was kinda waiting for my dumbfuck of a brother to give us a call and drop the kids off. my niece and nephew. they were going to spend the night 2 night. but he never called or anything. so my mind tonight was on seeing them. it's been awhile since i last saw either of them.

    WDIL: haha, yes indeed I am. I just discovered Westlake this year, and I'm in love with his prose; the style is totally unique. Waiting for Joyland and my McGee novels to arrive for a change of pace though.

    I've already got a bellyful of Joe Hill Kool-Aid, just now getting around to this one, though.

    That reminds me, I've got a new issue of Locke and Key to read, too.
