well Stardust...that movie about the deserted Island and "Wilson" left alot to be desired....but other than that..I agree with you.
I used to be an Ian Fleming nut and had read most all his James Bond novels before I was in high school.They are definetly better than the movies.

Any movie with Tom Hanks is sure to be a hit...wish I'd read that one first though

How about The Green Mile?

Generally I prefer a book over a film anytime.

I still like Graham Masterton though.

When I was reading Tommyknockers I almost gave up on it a couple of times. About 100 pages devoted to (damn forget the character's name but Jimmy Smits played him in the movie lol)
I was determined to see that book through to the end and I'm glad I did! It was infinitely better than the movie :-)

Is that the only King book you've read?
If so check out Nighmares and Dreamscapes...I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
Have you read John Saul or Dean Koontz? They are both awesome!

Yes I did Butch and it was one of those rare incidents where I found the movie to be better lol
Maybe that's because I saw the movie before I read the book lol

FYI My favourite story by King is Dolan's Cadillac...it's published in his book Nightmares and Dreamscapes.
Has anyone read it who would like to comment?

Sujet: Everything's Eventual
I just finished reading Stephen King's latest compilation of short stories,Everything's Eventual.
Some of the stories were typical King and held potential. Unfortunately,it couldn't measure up to Nightmares and Dreamscapes.
But who am I to talk...that guy can write better in his sleep than I ever could lol

All I can suggest is you keep watching the Dutch Ebay auction site:

Sujet: nobody ? :D ... here's the opinion of bookreviews.com
In The Time Traveler's Wife, Audrey Niffenegger tells a touching love story with a new twist. Henry DeTamble is a librarian who suffers from a genetic disorder that causes him to shift backward and forward through time. Without a moment's notice, he disappears, leaving behind his clothes and everything else, and arrives naked at another time in his life. Sometimes he even meets a different version of himself. He discovers that he has met Clare Abshire since she was a young girl, making several visits with her throughout her life. Clare falls in love with a man who can't control when he comes and goes. Far from being a science fiction novel, Audrey Niffenegger uses the time travel device as a way of drawing out her characters who want to overcome all obstacles in their love. Receiving glowing reviews, the Denver Post says, "Niffenegger's beautiful prose and sure-handed way with character development lifts The Time Traveler's Wife beyond the realm of romance potboilers and into the mainstream of literature that will last." This is one of our favorite books, a highly recommended read.
