The book is a lot better than the movie imo and definitely has more horror elements.

Reply to Update: so, I'm going to read 100 "classic" books, and To Kill a Mockingbird was the first on the list by [deleted]
Good list but I would switch out The Stand for The Shining. I would also replace a lot of the childrens books with some more Faulkner, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, etc…

Reply to Never let me Go - Ishiguro by bunnyju194
Remains of the Day is one of my all time favorite novels but I haven’t read this one yet. The book description just didn’t sound like something that would interest me. Is it fantasy/sci-fi? I’ve heard so many good things that I guess I should just read it.

You seem a bit sensitive about your favorite author. In no world is Stephen King considered a “literary genius.” The guy was simply asking a question and you couldn’t answer without insulting him.

It’s the Hard Knocks curse. Frank Reich was featured on Hard Knocks last year and didn’t even make through this whole season.

There are way more people addicted to alcohol than crack. And it destroys a lot more people.

Wayne’s World was a huge success. The others not so much.

I plan to read it eventually but it’s such a huge endeavor that I’m afraid I’ll start it but never finish it.
