Creepy sort of romance, not really to my taste, but well-written and with very evocative, even visceral descriptions.

“Might as well try to drink the ocean with a spoon as argue with a lover.”
Stephen King, The Drawing of the Three

Stephen        King
“Where you think I’m goan?’
‘Well,’ Eddie said, ‘what was behind Door Number One wasn’t so hot, and what was behind Door Number Two was even worse, so now, instead of quitting like sane people, we’re going to go right on ahead and check out Door Number Three. The way things have been going, I think it’s likely to be something like Godzilla or Ghidra the Three-Headed Monster, but I’m an optimist. I’m still hoping for the stainless steel cookware.”
Stephen King, The Drawing of the Three

“I’ll loosen the ropes a bit if you’ll be still,” Roland told her. “Suck shit out my ass, mahfah!” “I don’t understand if that means yes or no.”
