It's a collection of Stephen King short stories that have been made into movies. Currently reading "The Mangler."

Re-reading an old favorite, "The Man" by Irving Wallace.

It's a political melodrama based on the far-fetched notion (for 1964) of a black President of the United States. (Later made into a movie starring James Earl Jones as the President and William Windom as the polite but secretly racist Secretary of State.)

Feeling down yesterday, so I picked up another old favorite, Douglas Adams's "The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul."

I think it's his best actual novel (as opposed to "The Hitch-Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy," which is half of a two-part novelization of a radio series).

Clifford D. Simak - "Ring Around the Sun"

Stephen King talks about it in the novella, "Low Men in Yellow Coats." It sounded interesting, so I checked it out of the library. Just started it, so no review yet.

I'm still working my way back through The Stand, and on Sunday, I read Neil Gaiman's Coraline. It left me with some weird dreams that night, that's for sure!

I'm starting to appreciate this thing more and more.
