^ :lol: Don't worry, that was my first reaction too :P It gets better :wink:

I'm reading The Shining by Stephen King... Holey smoley, it's scaring the crap out of me :o I'm surprised, considering I'm not easily scared by books :P

It gets better? Ok... I think I can manage that...

I need to leave it for a while, though. I really don't think I'm in an alien mood :(

Just finished Cujo... Note to self, don't read Stephen King before bedtime. It's not that it's scary, it's just so SAD that I'm too depressed to sleep :(

Why did I have to name that gorgeous rottweiler at the pound Cujo?? Why couldn't I take him home and make sure that he doesn't

get killed horribly even though he's such a good, good, beautiful boy?????

*CRIES!!!!*

Do YOU need a rottweiler??? A young cross-bread male who's not so big and heavy as usual, and is an awesome dog, and is sweet and quiet and friendly, and even when certain incompetent volunteers let him escape from his leash outdoors, he comes running back to you all happy and smiling because he's just that wonderful and precious???!

Sommersby RSPCA, people!!! GO GET HIM NOW!!!! :mellow:

Is Cujo actually any good? I've had it sitting on my bookshelf for a few years now and just never gotten around to reading it...possibly because I know it's sad and I may cry.

I think it's great, but I'm a Stephen King fan. There's not really a lot of action and that can make it drag, but I think that's kind of the point. It's very much a waiting game for the second half of the book. Before that, it's more a story about relationships and people hiding stuff from each other and being selfish and stupid and all that fun stuff. Although I do have to amend my previous statement. After trying to sleep for the past hour or so and getting freaked the hell out by car alarms and shadows... I think Cujo IS scary >.< Not because of the dog, who I maintain is a good boy... but because... monsters - whether they be rabid dogs or psycho exes or serial killers - are real and they CAN get you!! :(
