I wrote an essay, from bordem/inspiration. Take a minute to read it if you'd like :)

Good read. Slightly off topic check out Malcolm X talking about 'Field Negroes' and 'House Negroes'-think its on Youtube as well. Diane Abbot springs to mind, and is possibly what she meant.

Me too, how you finding it? Personally I feel it's the best thing he has wrote in the last 7-8 years.

I haven't read much of Stephen King before this one (always wanted to start but for some reason never got around to it) but am enjoying this one very much. Only about 1/5 of the way through though. But yeah, really liking it :D

Misery by Stephen King

And honestly, brilliant reading.

Absolutely love Stephen King, got most of his many books now. Am currently reading "Insomnia" by King - very good so far, only near the beginning.

Very much looking forward to reading 11/22/63, looks excellent. If you think it is his best thing for 7-8 years that bodes well because i thought Duma Key and Under The Dome were just brilliant.

The Poet - Michael Connelly.

Not liking it so far. Started off well in typical Connelly fashion, seemed a great plot (still is, around the halfway stage now), just getting a tad drawn out though. Not great for a thriller. King wrote a raving endorsement of sorts at the beginning of the book, certainly doesn't live up to the lofty praise he's given it.
