There was a section near the end when Ig has a bit of a monologue about becoming the devil or something and I thought it was a little heavy-handed, but otherwise it was very good.<br /><br />Joe Hill has a really great collection of short stories called 20TH CENTURY GHOSTS that I highly recommend. His other novel, HEART-SHAPED BOX was quite scary, but I didn't really connect with the story. Regardless, Joe Hill is certainly a writer that I'm watching closely!Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02748178730844113883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-61326880549880423222012-03-28T20:42:17.869-04:002012-03-28T20:42:17.869-04:00Hmmmm…sounds like a bit of downer.

It was a really inventive and thoughtful read, and one that had me interest all the way through. There were some characters that I just HATED, and I am sure you know which ones I mean! It was a really great book though, and I am glad you liked it!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7964305665370254420.post-36540373073229834932012-03-27T10:30:56.970-04:002012-03-27T10:30:56.970-04:00I read a few pages of this one ages ago and then n...I read a few pages of this one ages ago and then never picked it up again.
