I've read and re-read The Stand and Salem's Lot. Big King fan. I also enjoyed the Insomnia-Pet Sematary tie in. Now I will have to read Hearts in Atlantis. I love King's novels, but I do have to say his short story collections (Just After Sunset, Night Shift, Everythings Eventual, wtc...) are damn near perfect.

Hearts in Atlantis wasn't my favorite book, but when it's all tied together, it is bad ***.

Great distopian read

Outstanding book. I don't know who Alberto Angela is, but the guy is great with words. Probably my favorite book of the year and I'm not even into that time period that much:

For some reason I start multiple books at the same time and go back and forth depending on my mood.
My current and most recent reads are:
The Lost Language of Symbolism
7 Habits
Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible
The Hobbit
Great Expectations
3 Cups of Tea
The Fablehaven Series

I will look into The Undaunted, Matter & Memory, and the Dark Tower Series.

Some of my favorites I keep going back to:
Ender's Game (The whole series is good as a whole, but the first is the best)
R.A. Salvatore's books on Drizzt Do'Urden
David Eddings Belgariad, and Mallorean
A Christmas Carol, A Tale of 2 Cities
Les Miserables

Has anyone else read this book? It's pretty dang bad a. It's one of those books that just completely sucks you in and you can't put it down. If what it says really is true, it's freaking incredible.

The movie adaptation of Papillon is also awesome … Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman.
