I've heard so many good things about this book/series, i tried to read it a couple years back, couldn't finish book 1, was bored out of my mind.
Just suck it up and finish it. Books 2-3 will are 10x better, but you need that first book under your belt. Book 1
is rather dry.
QFT.
So far,
Book 1: Slow...
Book 2: Fastastic. One of the best books I've ever read. GREAT characters and suspense.
Book 3: Just as good as two.
Book 4: Yawn. Actually, pretty bad...
Book 5: Not bad
Book 6: Just started
Book 7: (Profit?)
I used to reread book 2 and 3 fairly frequently. Great stuff.
I used to think books two and three would make good movies. But I'd be heartbroken if they were crap...
Am I the only one that thought "The Stand" was done fairly well, for a TV movie anyways?
I always wished "It" would be done as a year long mini-series on HBO with full blood, gore and sex...
I have no problems telling people to watch "It" and THEN read the book. At least you'll get the characters right away, and hardly get any of the plot of the book...
