[quote=Joe Mama] So you can ignore my opinion and read it anyway?
Will do, JM...
I didn't ignore your opinion of Grotesque.

I haven't bought it and, if I do, it will be in softcover when curiosity overwhelms. I've got too many I'm working through (Hard Case Crime's offerings...F. Paul Wilson's Repairman Jack novels [I just finished Gateways]...Koji Suzuki's Birthday...etc)
Lemme know how Suzuki's book is...

Yay!
"New"?
Methinks that King is starting to run of fumes, recycling novels an' all. Perhaps he should just fulfill my birthday wish and write the follow-up to Danse Macabre.
Could be - wouldn't be s'prised - the man has written some of the best keep-you-up-at-night horror tales for 35 years, it was bound to happen - but I love him, so anything I haven't read I'll see as "new" - even if it was written ages ago...
Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
