I remember reading this when I was much younger and I didn’t like it so much. However, now that I am much older, this books impressed me much more. I am rally enjoying re-reading these older books.

It took me three weeks to read this…mostly because my reading time is limited to the gym and the toilet. :)
I remembered reading this one as I was going along. Not my favourite, but pretty good.
I am going to take a diversion and work on reading the Series of Unfortunate Events books for a while.
It had been so long since I read this book, I barely had memories of it. I really enjoyed it but it got to me a little…probably because I read most of it while I was on the treadmill at the gym.
I’d really like to see this story adapted in to a movie.
I really enjoyed this one. I remember it being very good when I was younger as well. Now I really want to watcht the movie and start watching the TV show.
I hadn’t read this book in so long, I had actually forgotten the premises of some of the stories. I had forgotten how touching the last story, “The Woman In the Room” was.
I haven’t read this book since I was a teen. It’s amazing how being an adult really changes the impact of the story. I remember the book just being scary, but now as an adult, the issues of alcoholism and marital strife and child raising really stand out as being the more horrific parts.
I’m really glad I decided to re-read his books. I am gaining fresh perspective on them.
I’ve been feeling ill all week-end so I decided to stay in bed reading. I’ve had never read this one more than once and I found it to be just as enjoyale as it was when I was a child. I’m going to watch one of the mini-series tonight for contrast. (I did the same thing when I finished reading “Carrie” and that made it even more fun.”
I know I’ve read it at least 10 times, but now that I’m documenting my books…you get the idea.
Also, if you like to read, Shelfari.com is a great place to hang out.

Enjoy!
I’ve decided that I really want to start at the beginning with “Carrie” and read them all in the order he wrote them as best as I can.
So, yes, I’ve started with Carrie on 07/26/2008.
