Holy moly

Revisado: 05-11-19

I had absolutely no idea what to expect, and after 10-15 minutes I thought that I would quit on it.
I am very glad that I didn't do that, because not only did the story grow a LOT on me, but the performance of the cast, and the way the story was executed, was sublime.

Excellent story. Great performance. Thanks

OK story so far - but I cannot take the narrator

Revisado: 05-05-19

I have tried to get past the narration - but I keep finding myself not listening to the story - but to the Amazingly annoying narrators way of reading.
She puts emphasis on the last syllable in each sentence, and pronounces it just a bit more high pitched. I cannot explain it better, English being a second language for me, but it completely ruins the story for me. I have given up now - and will ask for a refund.

A match made in heaven, Clines and Porter.

Excellent story, and excellent read. Now its just to sit and wait for the next Clines Treshold story later this year. Aah life is good.

Not for me.

Revisado: 02-03-18

I was excited when Sleeping Beauties was announced. Due to other books I had to finish first - I only got to it in late January 2018 - and I struggled to get through it, feeling more and more confused.

I never really found out what the story wanted to tell me. There were so many things introduced to the story, that just never got cleared out WHY it was there.

No idea now, after finishing it, WHY it all happened. And It wasen't even interesting enough to make me care. Sorry Stephen King - I am a lifelong fan, but this was bad.
And well it was my first Owen King story - and I am going to be very carefully before engaging in another one.

I once read Stephen King saying that the worst thing he could imagine, in a book, was not that it was badly written with a good story - but a bad story - nomatter how good it was written.

This was sadly, a bad story.

Just finished this book. It will stay with me for a looong time. It may make you cry a couple of hundred times, but oh man was it good...

Lives... Big and small. I enjoyed it to the full.

21 hours of life - and death. Success and defeat. Ups and downs... Life.
Beautifully written by Matthew Thomas, and wonderfully read by Mare Winningham.

It grew on me - a lot

Revisado: 01-19-15

took me three tries over a period of six years to get into this story, but this time I stuck with it - and thank God for that.

it turned out to be a great story very nicely told by Mare Winningham.

As so many books do, this one deserves a second run.

Stephen King once again shows that noone comes close in telling a story of a person. not a character to a plot, but a person's life.

Thanks Mr. King, for letting me into the lives of Scott and Lisey.

My all time favorite story. Perfection

Revisado: 01-14-15

Perfect! If I could do a one-word review of this book - it would be that word. Perfect.

Stephen King's best story ever if you ask me. And John Slattery just lifts it up even higher.

The story is pure poetry. Listen to this. "Black is the absence of light - but white is the absence of memory - the color of can't remember" I had goosebumps for a long time after "reading" that.

Edgar Freemantle and Gerome Wireman and the way they work together in the story, and in your mind when you get to know them - is nothing short of amazing.

A great story, but even more so - a fantastic tale of one man's journey through a part of life, with up's and down's.

I listen to this story at least twice a year, and I think I will for as long as I can hear.
