I recently read "The Yellow Wallpaper" by Charlotte Perkins Gilman after SK referred to it as partial inspiration for short story "N.", and loved it...almost as much as I loved "N."...man, that particular tale gave me chills! Also recently read "The Doll Who Ate his Mother" by Ramsey Campbell (originally was intrigued by the title, but was sold by SK's praise for the book on the cover) but only found it so-so. Each to their own though

Ramsey Campbell is a literary monster. I love all his work.

I pulled The Road out from the bottom of the "pile." I liked it. It was different. Also, Poisonwood Bible by Kingsolver. Also different, but I enjoyed it. I've had better luck with his list than Oprahs (ducking under the table!)

For my birthday this year (late Feb) my g/f got me a bunch of books from Kings recommendation article. Most were hits, but some I didn't particularly like. The Tenderness of Wolves was one I could have done without. Also, The Road bored me.

Stephen has about the worst taste in music of anyone I've ever encountered.

I agree, his book recs are a mixed bag. The one I enjoyed most was the original I Am Legend novel.

Of course I trust his recomendations. I'm not into a lot of his music choices, but the more I read his works and see him in various interviews, the more that I see that he is a down to Earth guy who would be cool to hang out and shoot the breeze with over a couple of sodas. I am sure that most of you would agree.

OMG- I haven't thought of "The Doll Who Ate his MOther" in years! It was on my mom's bookshelf growing up, and I finally snuck it out and read it. I don't really remember it, but I will always remember the title. Kinda sticks with ya!
