Stephen King? He's pretty laughable imo.

Right now I'm still reading The Joy Luck Club, but I've also started the Batman:Knightfall series of comic books (at my husband's encouragement). It's pretty good so far.

also one of the best selling novelists of all time... sure he cant end a story but the dark tower series, and all his tie in mythology to that series is his best work.

His writing's really clunky is more the problem than his endings.

I don't know whats more astonishing, the fact that you're one of the few people Iv'e ever met, besides myself, that have read that book or that you're re-reading it as I was just thinking about doing.

Slapstick - Kurt Vonnegut

Favorites are Cat's Cradle and Slaughterhouse-5, naturally.
