I have a hard time staying committed to Stephen King novels.

I lose the gist, eventually, and get bored.

And I'm an avid reader, not many books affect me that way.

The Regulators is the best Bachman book. Not sure if it's in the series you're reffering. It's seconded only to Children of the Corn for my favorite Stephen King book.

I read "Dry" and liked it I got it off Amazon. If you like it read anything by Bret Easton Ellis.

Bachman's books are pretty good. They weren't as supernatural as King's books were (though Thinner was still pretty supernatural). And I think Stephen King is a great writer. One of the only- if not the only- authors I'll read continuously. But I don't read that often I guess.

Just finished How To Be Good a couple days ago. It was pretty great.
