I picked up this book, Never Look Away, from the library based on an article Stephen King wrote in EW about it. He said it was a great thriller that would keep you up at night to read. Truth be told, I picked it up because I couldn't find the book I really wanted.
Reading the back, it didn't really sound like my thing and, in my experience, advertising somethings a "thriller" generally means it isn't. Anyway, I started it the other night and kind of groaned my way through the first few chapters, but yesterday decided that I just needed to give it my full attention and get into it, and now I can't stop! I am still not sure if it is my thing but there are all these plot lines that he has linked up in such a way that at the end of each chapter you take a moment to reassess what you have learned and make a new guess as to what the heck is going on! It is fun in a real who-done-it kind of way and I am totally engrossed. But right this minute I am really hoping it doesn't all turn out to be dumb and cliched because I will be pissed!
