I have Duma Key in my bookshelf. I've read it once and it was a great book. Thought I re-read it soon.

Since I have had children I don't have as much time as I would like to read, so after I buy the book I also buy the audiobook. And when listening to the audiobooks I always catch so much more that I missed when reading the book. Especialy with Duma Key. I think I have listened to this book probably 20 times. It was amazing!!

I tried reading Duma Key some time back, but ended up getting disinterested in it pretty early and putting it down, I dont know why, I dont know if it's the setting, I prefer Gothic Maine rather than tropical Florida I guess, I,ll give it another go though and see if I can get into it a little more second time around.

Duma Key is one of my favorites, Ka-Oy. I especially liked the chapters titled: How to Draw a Picture. I enjoyed both the story-within-a-story aspect of those, as well as what they say about the creation of art. And since encouragement is so rare--Cervantes wrote: Virtue is persecuted by the wicked more than it is loved by the good. (Don Quixote, a great story, check it out.)--but since encouragement is so rare and unless you happen on it among friends or strangers, well, I'll take it where I find it. Too, there's some plausible linkages there to Roland's story.

I bought Duma Key when it came out 2009 here. And read it immediatley, and it's still one of my favorit.

Hi,

Yay!

Only took 1009 posts for you to mention a Sai King book.

What are the other four ? (there's a thread for that, you know?)

Long days and pleasant nights

I just got into King books about 2 months ago when I ran across the Dome. I liked it so much it became my 2nd favorite of all time. I really enjoyed the characters and just really loved the whole "everyone has secrets" kind of story. THEN I saw Duma Key. Man, this is even better than the dome. I literally can't put the book down. I read it at home and work pretty much non stop. Crazy that I'm 36 years old and never even gave King a chance. Really happy I did.
