I spent a whole day cleaning the house the other day, and one of the bigger jobs was clearing off my several bookshelves. It took me a couple hours to unload all of the books, scrub the shelves down and dust off some of the decor, but when I had cleaned them all off, I found a paperback copy of The Green Mile laying forgotten at the back. I have no idea when I got it, but if I were guessing, I'd say over the Summer.

Anyways, it made my day. I haven't read a King novel in a couple months.

I just hope it proves to be good. I've heard that it is.

I am reading the green mile and I simply love it! I liked the movie, but am really enjoying the novel so much more!! King really made a very hate-able character in Percy Whetmore he's awful

I just finished The Green Mile last night...... I am definitely putting this as one of my all time favorites by SK! I just knew that Mr. Jingles was what P. Edgecomb had as his secret on his walks! SK didn't disappoint

You have found a wonderful book, filled with strange and marvelous characters. It is an awesome saga of good versus evil. Grab a beverage, find your favorite seat, make yourself comfy and ENJOY!!

I wound up finishing this book last weekend while I was on vacation. Easily the most emotional-inducing book King has ever written. The plot of the novel never really resonated with me prior to reading it, but I'm glad I finally did. I think it may have pushed its way into my list of Top Five Stephen King Novels of All Time.

I had watched the movie first and honestly had no idea it was based on a SK work when I watched it. Once I found out, I had to get the book; it is awesome.

I decide few years ago that I'm not going to read Green Mile, beacuse I thought it was a boring book. But now after I've read it,I have to change my mind completely. This was a wonderful and a great book.
