Bag of Bones by Stephen King (1998, Unabridged, Audio Cassette)

I love anything written by Stephen King. He is a great writer. I didn't know what to make of this one when I received it. I thought it was wonderful. I guess everyone deals with the loss of someone dear to them in their own way.
This is a story of a man who loses his wife and deals with it by going to their counrty home called Sarah laughs. You will have to read the book to find out why the house is called as such. This in itself is awesome. I was floored. Stephen King books are like a story within a story. I found a lot of little things that all relate in his books. There for the longest time, I would only read his works. They aren't big things, just little things that make you say "Wait didn't this person do something like this in another story." At first I thought I was losing it but I went back and read the other book and it's there. I have read everything I can get my hands on by Stephen King. In the beginning I'm lost but by the end I understand and it all makes sense.
This is one of those books. In the beginning, you'll be lost wondering what one thing has to do with the next but as the book progresses, it all starts to add up. I loved the way he ends the book. It is the history of the house and how it got it's name. So, it was like he ended the book at the beginning. This is the best way I know how to describe it.
He even made me want to go out and buy one of those plastic owls for on my porch. I know "What?" just read the story and you'll understand what I mean. Like I said, I've read a lot of his work and I've sort of seen him mature as a writer. This one is great and really heald my interest. Some of his work is confusing, not this one. In the end, you'll cry for Sarah.

This audiobook in particular is read by Stephen King himself. Loved the book and audiobooks are a great way to help you fall asleep!

We love mysteries, and listen to audio books when we travel. It makes the trip seem so much shorter gettiing involved in a story.

This was a really good Stephen King book. I especially loved the fact he read it himself. He did a great job. At some parts I laughed, and some I cried. There is music and sound effects in the audiobook, which makes it even more realistic. I also enjoyed the interview with Stephen King at the end. He explains what he was thinking when he wrote the book, how he came up with the plot, etc. It was interesting.
