Willow - I'll take a look at it, if I can find it. What I do like about Stephen King though is that he's not unnecessarily gory. Mind you, there's the occasional touch of it, but it's not overdone like they do in some horror books, where it seems they do it to remind you that you're reading a horror book.

That Was Then, This is Now is a bit of a sequel to The Outsiders, and Rumble Fish is also pretty similar. Tex is more about just Tex (the character), he's more of a cowboy than anything else.

JDM - I'm very judgy and picky. I'm not sure how I pick them, sometimes I just get an urge to read a book that I know of. That's what happened to me with The Help.
