And yet more books...

65. No Fear by Sherry Ashworth. I think this is my least favorite of the three of her books I've read, but I still like it well enough to re-read it every year or so, LOL.

66. The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon by Stephen King. Again, not really a favorite when compared to some of his other books that I simply adore, but I'd only read it once or twice before so I thought I'd give it another go.

67. Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason by Helen Fielding. I love the first book and am only mildly enthused about this one. I guess this was my week of reading just-okay books.

68. The Book of Awesome by Neil Pasricha. I only read this one because my son left it lying around and I picked it up. Sometimes funny.

The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon is one of my favorite SK books. Not THE favorite, but certainly one of the top ten. The only thing I don't like is the ending. I've always thought it would have been a much more powerful novel if the ending had been ... don't want to spoil ... more ambiguous, if you know what I mean. ;-))

King does the "child" voice so well. I love anything he writes from that pov.

He really, really does do a great "kid voice." Most of the books of his I really love are among his earlier work, stuff that I read as a teenager. My very favorites are Christine, The Stand, and It. I'm actually re-reading Christine now.
