Summary: A great book to cure insomnia
Review: As a general rule, I have discovered Stephen King writes like a high school freshman who is barely passing English class. Before Bag of Bones, I had read two of King's books. The first one, Misery, didn't impress me. The other one was The Green Mile. The only thing that saved King's writing in that book was the incredibly mesmerizing storyline. However, after The Green Mile, Bag of Bones was a huge letdown. The plot is boring, the writing is pathetic, and it's so drawn out it that it could've (and should've) been edited down to 300 pages. Moreso, if that much-needed edit had occured, Bag of Bones would've had the exact story as the 700+ page version.

Summary: Wonderful characters--transported me to another place
Review: As a long-time King fan--since before he was well-known, I've been somewhat disappointed with recent books. None have given me that wonderful "transported" feeling. With the best of King's books I've dreamed of the characters and the storyline--this one was that way again. The only reason I gave this 4 star is because I felt this bogged just a bit in the middle. I could have done without the whole legal battle. But the beginning captured me completely and led me from tears (a rarity for me) to a giggle to goosebumps and for the most part I felt that way throughout. I suppose if someone is looking for a strictly-horror novel they may not find what they're looking for there, but I found the mix of romance and ghost story to be delightful. Loved the characters! I'll suggest this book to many readers with different interests!

Summary: Scared me Silly !!!
Review: A great big scary book. I could not read it at night because it kept me awake. When I did sleep, I had nightmares. I could barely put it down without thinking about it. I did not want it to end.

Summary: Just read it
Review: ... it's perfectly written... the characters are lovely... the atmosphere reaches an astonishing climax of surreal romantism..." yeah, everything here is true. But it's not the story, it's not the characters. It's just something wich takes you by the guts for a long, deep, wonderful ride into some landscapes you've never seen before. I just can't tell exactly how I felt both excited and calm once I finished it. I felt cool, I felt sad, I felt starved, I wanted more. It's... I couldn't say. Oh, sh@@, please, JUST READ IT!!!!!!

Summary: Something To Curl Up With!
Review: Like all King's books you are drawn into the life of these characters. it brings forth a new kind of Stephen King. its not the stories we've come to know and love. but, it is a tale that will instanly grow on you, and pull you in. if you havent read Bag of Bones, READ IT. if you are looking for a few nights of story telling that deals with just about every emotion there is to feel, then this is the tale or you. but, if you are looking for the tales that kings has been writing for 20+ years this is not for you. its a new kind of story, a new kind of King.

Summary: A welcome change
Review: I thought this book was a nice change of pace for Stephen King. He usually wries strong horror books so thats what I expected when I first picked up this book. But, I was pleasently suprised to find that this was a love story/suspence thriller. I won't give the book away but, I will say that this book is strong on the sexual content. If you like thrillers and love stories this is most deffinitly the book for you!!

Summary: Gave me nightmares...
Review: Some of King's more recent efforts have been disappointing, Gerald's Game comes to mind. But first with Desperation and now Bag of Bones he has once again proven to be one of the most talented storytellers of our time. Stylistically, Bag of Bones represented a welcomed departure from most of his works. King seemed at home with the first person narrative, a style I hope he returns to in the future. To sum it up I would rank this his second best book, only behind The Stand.
