I have never read Stephen King (I am too scared) but Joe did a great job with this book.

I wasn't all that crazy about 20th Century Ghosts though.

I have only listened to a few audiobooks, but made sure to listen to clips on iTunes before purchasing so I could make sure the reader was good. :)Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13763880769278650225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346831263230175202.post-52522671763774501522009-06-04T12:55:47.172-07:002009-06-04T12:55:47.172-07:00You know what, I did start listening to it on audi...You know what, I did start listening to it on audio last year and I thought it was boring. I don't know why. Maybe it was the narrator, especially that your review sounds like it was a great book and I have heard other people liking the book as well. I might have to try to read it instead and see if I like it better.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07127042690689033583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346831263230175202.post-9840399240585089262009-06-04T09:10:47.388-07:002009-06-04T09:10:47.388-07:00Okay, your review has freaked me out just enough t...Okay, your review has freaked me out just enough to add it to my list!
