K Is For King

Stephen King that is!

I love to read and I read a lot!  
Many different authors, but not Stephen King..
WHY?  because he is scary and I don't like scary

One of my best friends is also a big reader and we trade books all the time.  She told me about his new book from Stephen King

What can I say....this is one of the best books I've ever read!  He is an awesome story teller and really captured my imagination!  This 1,000 page novel might be the longest book I've ever read cover to cover!
It's about what If!  What if you could go back and stop the Assassination of President John F. Kennedy
How would things change?
Would you change history if you could?
Should you?

Do yourself a favor and read this awesome thought provoking and intriging story! 

I just might have to read more Stephen King
as long as it's not scary!

  1. I have been eyeing that one up on Amazon for a while. I'll order it now!

    I don't like horror novels either, but Stephen King's book on writing, the name of which escapes me right now, is wonderful!

    He is a talented writer...

  2. I do not do scary...but this sounds different and good. My mom would probably love it too. Thanks for the recommendation!

  3. I don't like scary either and would have assumed this one was scary too. Perhaps I'll give it a try.

  5. The movie "Lean on Me" is from a short story by Stephen King. It is a bittersweet story of young lives. You must check it out!!!

  7. Haven't read that one but loved his non-fiction "on writing". He's an interesting guy, to say the least.

  9. A great writer....although much of his writing scares me too much...I really enjoy reading his articles, like when he posts in Entertainment Weekly...his writing is good....and his thoughts (outside of his main writing) are too!
