“When you’re twenty-one, life is a roadmap. It’s only when you get to be twenty-five or so that you begin to suspect you’ve been looking at the map upside down, and not until you’re forty are you entirely sure. By the time you’re sixty, take it from me, you’re fucking lost.”
- Stephen King, Joyland

Just bought this yesterday. Plan to read it on the way to Spain Monday. Although he was an infatuation of my youth, I've found that SK rarely lets me down. He tells a ripping yarn.
I'm with you, Dave. I got into King when I was in the eighth grade and then drifted away after high school. But 11/22/63 won me back, and I'm really looking forward to Doctor Sleep, the upcoming sequel to The Shining.
