Insomnia

[cutie_kristin]

So I must say I love Stephen King's novels! It is so interesting how he has built his own little world with his books. Apparently all of his novels are related to each other somehow, either by character or towns.
For example in this novel, Insomnia, that I just got and love, the setting is in Derry. I believe that in The Secret Window that the main characters ex-wife lived in the town of Derry. And also in all the novels that get turned into movies, Stephen King does a cameo appearance in them.

But anyways I just started reading this novel and I love it. I lvoe reading scary novels before bed... and so far it isn't scary, but kinda of twisted. The main character Ralph is 70 years old and suffers from insomnia. I have never really read any novels that have the main character as an elderly man, so it is different in that sense and also that it is a Stephen King novel so you know it is going to get gruesome and twisted somewhere.

I really like it and would recommended it to anyone.

Yes, He tries to connect all the books with characters or towns etc...And he usually does a cameo in all the movies, in some of the movies you have to watch very closely or you will miss him...lol...His books and movies ROCK...Though I do not like the book or movie IT.

I love all Anne Rice books and movies but mostly the books

Oh, I agree with you on the Stephen King thoughts..and also on the movie It. A long time ago, I was anxious to see that movie because it seemed like a thriller..Really, it's sort of stupid..
