Stephen King Readers Thread

Published

So a recent thread got me thinking (which is never a good thing) It appears we have number of Stephen King Readers. I suggest we do a nursing DX for our favorite King Character!

BTW if you liked The Shining (Book not movie) you are going to love Dr. Sleep

Great review though. I hated that book.

What did you all think of Gone Girl?

I really enjoyed Gone Girl. I liked how I didn't know what was going to happen next and that it was told from different points of view. I think the author has something else out now I need to check out.

I just really disliked both main characters in GG. I've read her other books though and mostly liked them.

I read it but felt kind of sick afterwards and tossed the book in the trash. It was a paperback so don't worry. ;)

I really enjoyed Duma Key which is set in one of my favorite places, the Florida Keys.

I love you even more for bringing up Duma Key. I will go as far as saying it's hands-down one of my favorite books of all time - definitely in my top five, at least. I think I've read it about eight times by now. Come to think of it, I'm probably due for another re-read.

I have to admit. I kind of miss those made for TV movies and miniseries. Thinking about "IT" still conjures creepy images after more than 20 years.

Did you know they're re-making a movie for It? The guy who directed Mama is taking over directing. I am holding out the vaguest shred of hope that it will be awesome. I don't think there is a release date yet.

Also, very related, one of my boyfriend's many horror-related tattoos, taken while it was still fresh and angry -

Oh, he has freaked out many a small child and many not-so-small not-children, between that, the Evil Dead remake tattoo, the Evil Ash from Army of Darkness tattoo, the Freddy Krueger tattoos on his legs...

I love that man. There's just something about a man who really appreciates horror. :inlove:

I would be freaked. Id have to break up with him or he'd have to keep it covered at all times. You are a brave woman cali.

I can't think right now but how about a nursing diagnosis for a decapitated pregnant woman lying on the sidewalk in labor and still able to do her Lamaze breathing?

Anybody come up with and ICD10 dx?
