It's Monday - what are you reading?


Right now I'm reading Stephen King's "11.22.63" and I love it! Timetravelling has always fascinated me
and with 700 pages this book is absolutely perfect for me :)

11.22.63

WHAT IF you could go back in time and change the course of history? WHAT IF the watershed moment you could change was the JFK assassination? WHAT HAPPENS WHEN a young teacher from Lisbon Falls, Maine, 2011, gets the chance to stop Lee Harvey Oswald from shooting JFK in November 1963 is the premise of the brilliant new novel by STEPHEN KING: 11/22/63, the date that Kennedy was shot—unless . . .
King takes his protagonist Jake Epping, a high school English teacher, on a fascinating journey back to the world of 1958—from a world in 2011 of mobile phones and iPods to a new world of Elvis and JFK, of Plymouth Fury cars and Lindy Hopping, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake's life—a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time.

  13. That's a book that's on my list - I just wish he didn't do as much political posturing as he tends to do in his later novels =( I hope you are enjoying it!

  14. I have so many other Stephen King books on my TBR that I'm reluctant to add any more.

    My favorite read last week was Swahili for the Broken Hearted by Peter Moore. Please come see what else I'm reading.
