I don't get much time to read or post these days, but picked up Buick 8 last
week in antcipation of vacation time i have this week. I wanted another
title, but the Barnes & Noble in my area must have something against Steve.
The selection royally sucked, but they had #2 on my list anyway.

Without any Spoilers, i've plowed 1/2 way through it so far (which is way
quicker than i expected), and am really liking it so far. It comes out of
the hole quickly, and slowly ramps up the interest. It's very easy to
follow, and doesn't contain much side/back story. The smallish band of
characters keeps the focus tight.

Hopefully the 2'nd half is as good as the 1'st.

Finished it last week, and started in on my 2'nd time through. Definitely a
new favorite King book on my bookshelf. IMO, it comes off written like an SK
short story. Or maybe it was a short story that got fattened up into a book.

I'm still on the fence wether revealing what Sandy saw at the end of the
book was better than leaving the Buick as a complete mystery. Either way, i
wouldn't have been disappointed.

BTW. What happened to ABSK ? Are newsgroups going the way of dial-up
internet connections ?
