Yay!!!
The BEST THING in the world happened today - at least I think so anyway!
Stephen King's new book hit the shelves and in my lunch break I bought a copy.
Under The Dome is almost 900 pages in length.
Yummy Yummy!!
I will let you know what I think of it as soon as I reach the last page....

I look forward to your review. Wow! 900 pages...shades of The Stand.
oooo.... can't wait!!! read faster! :)
Looking forward to your review, Akasha. Although I think I'll order me a copy as well. I'm a huge Stephen King fan, and I don't want your review to be a spoiler. ;-) But really, I look forward to reading your perspective of that. Hurry, now. You've got us holding our breath!

Alan ~ Under the Dome is suppose to be his best epic since The Stand. I'm already hooked!
Valerie ~ I'm already 100 pages in!
Nevine ~ I promise I won't give too much of the story away. :)
900 pages? That sounds like total immersion. Enjoy. :)
I share in your want to read this book, though it will take a couple of weeks to get through it when I finally get my hands on a copy.
It sounds very promising, as there are few King novels that I have read and not enjoyed.
I almost bought it yesterday in the airport.
Jason ~ I am immersed!
Rabid Fox ~ I am 200 pages in...but not giving anything away yet....
John ~ it would have put up your weight allowance...it's one doorstop of a book!
I look forward to reading your review. 900 pages... what a feat, and a feast! :-)
Yes, do post on this Akasha! Dying to know how it is.
Vesper ~ it is a reading feast indeed!...but it plays havoc with my writing!!
Rick ~ I'm 300 pages in, I'll post a review asap.
I thought King was going to retire. This book sounds suspiciously like the Simpsons when the entire town of Springfield was put under a transparent dome. Is anyone in the book named Homer? Does anyone have a catch phrase such as "Great ooglie googlie?"
Stewart ~ That was my thought exactly when I heard what King's new book was about! I love the Simpson's movie and I bet that's where SK got his idea from...although I must add, so far the story is not anything like the adventures of Homer...bit more blood and gore; you know how it is in Kingdom.
As for retiring: once a writer, always a writer, that's what I say. How do you stop the words from coming?
