This story was not what I thought it was going to be. I haven’t seen any of the adaptations of it so I just assumed you bury your pet and it comes back to life. It is and it isn’t. And more toward isn’t. Also, I feel dumb that I never noticed until it was pointed out in the book that it’s actually “cemetery” and not “sematary.”
Spoiler alert: No one’s head spins around in this one… but some may or may not be removed…
I’m sure for a lot people, they don’t have that “I remember where I was when we saw the first images of Pluto.” But I do. I was at work, watching a live NASA feed as they released the first high resolution images of that most distant planet, er, dwarf planet, Pluto.
I’ve been trying to get into Stephen King, but it’s been hit or miss. I’ve read The Institute – 2 stars. Thinner – 4 stars, but my memory is more in the 2-star range. Probably because I hated the main character. Of course, I’ve read The Shining and Doctor Sleep, but I never gave these ones ratings (re-reads coming soon with ratings). Hmm… may I’ve liked him more than I realized. At any rate, if you want to make yourself into a Stephen King fan, read Misery!
A low-key sequel to Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and told in a series of flashback starring Admiral Uhura, Lieutenant Benjamin Sisko, Lieutenant Tuvok, and Dr. Selar.
You had me at “a low-key sequel to Star Trek VI.”
Are you tired of reading? Are you looking for a book to put you into a nice reading slump? Or a coma? Well, I have good news and bad news… The good news is that this book can help you in those areas. The bad news is that means you have to read it…

Another pick for the Planetary Society book club. And what an amazing pick this was! Who knew that a journey to a lifeless rock somewhere between Mars and Jupiter would be interesting?! This author understood the assignment!
Cadet Babyface, reporting for duty!
Dern. This here is a tragedy. An epic tragedy, I reckon. Come to think of it, I don’t think anyone said “reckon” in this 858 page tome. Oh, and this may be an unpopular opinion, but I really, really did not like the character of Lorena…
