Weekly book review.

The Road to the Dark Tower by Bev Vincent: Though the introduction and first chapter and a half were rather slow moving and slightly dry, the rest of the book was really good. TRttDT made connections in King's work that I'd never seen before, and also clarified some things from the series that I'd not fully understood. I think what I liked best, though, were the little snippets in the book that were totally unexpected. For instance, I found out that Roland (the main character) had siblings. This was briefly hinted at in one of the books, but Vincent actually found out more from King. A very thorough read which makes me want to reread King's "magnum opus" a third time.

Bag of Bones by Stephen King: I've read this one before, but only once. The style of this book is refreshing because, while definitely written by King, the book has a different feel than many of his others. I remember little about this book and look forward to rereading it.
