I bought the Gunslinger and gave up on it because I didn't like the writing style even though I usually like Stephen King a lot.

Just finished reading Hater by David Moody

It was okay. Might read the sequel.

I'm already almost done the book [granted it's only about 400 pages], but I'm really enjoying it so far.

One of my favorite book series ever.

I don't want to spoil anything, but have you gotten to the part where he moves through the town with Alice and the guy who plays Hey Jude? Probably my favorite part of the book.

I'm reading Blindsight by Robin Cook. I'm at 1/3, so far it's good. Nothing scary or too suspicious though, so perhaps it's a bit slow.

I love reading when I have the time for it.

Just incase, I'll black it out.
I'm about 3/4-ish of the way through [I havent read any more yet]. He just took mescaline, and left the boy to go trip out at the alter.

If you're talking about the whole part where he destroys the town, and the story of the town - I really liked that.

Yeah that's what I'm talking about. He destroys everyone in the town, then goes and has some hamburger. Not to mention he can reload a revolver with one hand. What a badass.

I finished Robin Cook's Blindsight, which was ok (better than Mindbend, not as good as Terminal).

Now I'm reading Leviathan by some guy. His writing style isn't perfect, but the story is good so far. Huge firespitting monster, what's not to like?
