I always have the best intentions when it comes to blog challenges, but since I'm still something of a newbie I tend to fall off cart before the horse leaves the stable... if that makes any sense. But then I saw a twitter from Tif Talks Books about The Stand, and followed it to her blog where she's hosting a read-a-long for one of my all time favorite Stephen King books! So, better late than never, I've decided to give this one a go. I'm a little behind, but here's my first post:
Will this be your first read of The Stand by Stephen King or a re-read? If you are choosing not to read this book, why? Does just the word King make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up? :) No, I've read The Stand several times, but not in recent years.
If this is a re-read, what has drawn you back to the book for a second (or more) time? The Stand is probably one of my all time favorite Stephen King novels, although I have several, and it's a book I can always curl up with on a dark and windy night. The uncut version is just a work of art!
Whether you know the story or not, which location would you prefer if you were a survivor of a gruesome plague: Boulder, Colorado or Las Vegas, Nevada? I am a Mother Abigail girl all the way! Plus I will always take cold over hot.
So good to have you join in!! I'm glad to have another King fan, particularly of The Stand!! Can't wait to hear your thoughts along the way! :)
