    Default Duma Key -- How'd you like it?

    Hello there,
    I'm Caitey. I'm Fourteen years old, and I've just finished "Duma Key", by StephenKing, obviously. This book was quite phenomenal. Although it was hard to follow, like many other Stephen King books. My favourite part in the book, I would have to say, was when Edgar had the encounter with the 'zombie' . That was quite fasinating. Tell me what your overlooks on the book are! Thanks,


    Caitey. <3<3<3<3

    I thought it was a great book! I thought it was a great idea on having the women in red being able to get to people threw the paintings!

    This book was very good, and I think it had some of King's most frightening scenes. For example, the two zombie kids, the sounds of the seashells under Big Pink, the knowledge that someone had been in his house when he was out.

    Duma Key was almost good enough to overtake IT as my favorite, but not quite.

    IMO, even "bad" King is better than most other authors best. I absolutely loved DK, I think it was his best in a while.

    Now if I can just make it to the fall....

    I liked it. Not one of my favorites, but I just didn't connect with Edgar the way I do most King characters. Still a great story!

    LOL!

    And I really enjoyed Duma Key. I'm sad to say this, but a lot of King's characters can be forgettable. Duma Key is completely the opposite of this. All the characters were very engaging, and were one of my favorite things about the book.

    I enjoyed the character of Elizabeth, both as an older lady and as a younger girl. Those big ole tennie shoes, those ceramic figures she wanted the men to take a look at, see what she'd done with them, whatever it was that that other old lady whispered in her ear at the showing and they both cackled. Some kind of private matter between the two of them. The way she wanted Wireman to dispose of some of the figurines. Was she on Perse's trail?
