I'm a huge Stephen King fan, but this book in particular was fascinating to me. Published as a serial, I couldn't wait to read the next one when I reached the end of the current installment. And John Coffey (like the drink, only not spelled the same) is one of the most compelling characters I've ever read about.George Anthony Kulzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09838407573681387537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30155656.post-70321008975720064602011-09-09T18:33:08.725-07:002011-09-09T18:33:08.725-07:00I read Melody..
