That feeling left me as I kept reading. Although I still think if King wrote kids books he would write something similar. You can always give the first one a try and if you don't like it there is no need to read the rest. That's the way I see series now.<br /><br />Kat, I have book 2 there. I'm not always 100% confident of authors commendations unless they have been talking about it in articles. Mainly because they get paid to put their names on these blurbs. Many a time I have read a book because and author I like has something written on the cover and have been disappointed. In saying that I did like the first one and whilst I'm a little wary of how it's going to turn out I will read the second one.<br /><br />Selina, I know exactly what you mean. I would have much preferred more post-apocalyptic and a little less paranormal. It's that aspect of the book that worries me. Could easily become a bit of a farce.KarenSihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17875454663363953921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924802320400229726.post-62117586871956316172011-08-22T02:24:05.771-07:002011-08-22T02:24:05.771-07:00I liked this one too, but I wished it would have b...I liked this one too, but I wished it would have been more post-apocalyptic and less paranormal.

Stephen King always praises these books, and has remarked that they're similar to something he might have written. Hope you will continue to be pleasantly surprised, and great review. :)<br /><br /><a href="http://www.amyriadofbooks.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Kat @ A Myriad of Books</a>Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18414324160166322024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924802320400229726.post-91496673835711580722011-08-21T13:12:59.917-07:002011-08-21T13:12:59.917-07:00Hmmmmm . . . sounds interesting but I'm not a ...Hmmmmm . . . sounds interesting but I'm not a big Stephen King fan so I'm not sure if I would enjoy it. I do think the premise is intriguing. I'll put it in my long list of books. Next year my reading focus will be such that this book may end up being bumped from the "long list" to the immediate pile. You never know. Or at least, I never know. I guess I shouldn't try to speak for what you do or do not know.Satiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227625739706115993noreply@blogger.com
