Jules, I want to apologize for my absence. I'm still waiting for a copy of the book from the library, and I'm not sure when it will be here. Otherwise, I would be discussing it.

My deepest apologies.

Oh, don't worry about it ^^ Whenever you're able.

Okay, cool. I just feel bad because I voted for the book, and no one has started to discuss it yet.

The sense of dread seems to be piling up like the snow falling in the story! I love how Straub mentions things early in the book and then revisits them from a different point of view later, even telling it within a flashback. A flashback within a flashback within a flashback!

That sounds awesome, and very impressive! You seem to be enjoying it.:)

Lol, I feel blessed that Julanne picked the book! It just clicked with me at the right time. I've meant to read this for a long time, but kept finding reasons not to. This hasn't entirely been a happy experience, but the best ones seldom are. The voice of the author reflects back the life experience and expectations of the reader. At the same time we are communing w/the author. Haha... I guess I'm making out the reading experience to be a spiritual one.

At least at its best.

At least at its best.

I agree. Some of the best stories aren't always happy, and that's the way it should be, IMO. Who wants bells and whistles all the time, anyway, right? A great story should take the reader on an emotional roller coaster.

I'm glad it clicked with you! I'm starting to get more into it myself, the further I go.
