Full Dark, No StarsFollow

If I had to sit down and actually read a book it would take me a year to get through a single novel. That and I do enough reading with my textbooks and the stuff I'm learning on my own. Audio books give me the chance to get stuff done while listening. It's like being told a story, the quality depends on the narrator. Some of the narrators take a little getting used to, but I haven't run into one yet that really ruined a book.

Same here. Loved the book. Which means I'll hate the series.

King wrote the screenplay for The Stand and also the TV miniseries. It always amuses me how so many people didn't like the TV version of The Shining, when it was closest to the book. The movie was so far off from the book and goofy. The book has actually scared me, and I don't scare easy.

I absolutely love the book, I like the movie but do not like the mini series at all. I have to admit that it's mostly the kid that made me hate it.

He irritated me from the start, seriously irritated me.

I also disliked the Stand and IT, apart from Pennywise that is.

I'm not sure that literal King translations to the screen works well.

I liked The Stand mini-series, Dolores Claiborne, Misery and to a lesser extent, Needful Things. All other movies I tend to compare them the entire time to the book and it ruins it for me.

I read The Gunslinger and started The Drawing of the Three, but I haven't gotten very far in it. I need to go back and pick it up again after I finish the Dune series and my current Neil Gaiman addiction.
