There are still two days left in the fest you know ; )<br /><br />@Golden Eagle Can you tell I'm a bit of a Stephen King fangirl?<br /><br />@Francine I feel the same way after visiting the few blogs I have so far!<br /><br />@June G Thanks so much. That's sweet of you.<br /><br />@M Pax Leo was brilliant but I still thought the book was better.<br /><br />@Tonja It's one of my favorite books too, but the movie is a classic too.<br /><br />@kelworthfiles You are very wise.

What I've seen of Dean Koontz adaptations tells me someone either needs to get a clue, or they need to just give up trying to make anything good from his books (which I love).Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7689587591545890630.post-42347153212556809302011-08-01T08:26:05.728-04:002011-08-01T08:26:05.728-04:00Fantastic list!
