![]() ![]() I absolutely loved the main characters – the way I can only love King characters. Boy, how I was wrong!! I heard so many people say that 11.22.63 is one of their all time favourite books and after reading it, I totally understand that. I’m not really that interested in the presidential history of the US, and it didn’t really sound like a King story to me. To be honest: this book wasn’t exactly high on my King TBR. The course of history is about to be rewritten…and become heart-stoppingly suspenseful. But all turns in the road lead to a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald. ![]() How? By stepping through a portal in the diner’s storeroom, and into the era of Ike and Elvis, of big American cars, sock hops, and cigarette smoke… Finding himself in warmhearted Jodie, Texas, Jake begins a new life. Jake is blown away…but an even more bizarre secret comes to light when Jake’s friend Al, owner of the local diner, enlists Jake to take over the mission that has become his obsession-to prevent the Kennedy assassination. While grading essays by his GED students, Jake reads a gruesome, enthralling piece penned by janitor Harry Dunning: fifty years ago, Harry somehow survived his father’s sledgehammer slaughter of his entire family. Life can turn on a dime-or stumble into the extraordinary, as it does for Jake Epping, a high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine. ![]()

I struggled to find a word that would describe the tone of Staples’ prose. The change has been a quickening - an awakening that transcends specifics. it didn’t leave me more grateful that I am not living in a war-torn, impoverished nation, and it hasn’t made me re-think my political or religious preferences.

The story mainly tells us about the life of a man and 2 women. I thought the story made them look insignificant. Not the super-extremely-high-detailed stuff such as a gay couple. I thought, ‘I DIDN’T KNOW INDONESIA LETS SUCH THINGS BE IN A BOOK’ but then again, what’s important is the contents. ![]() The number one thing that made me feel so mixed up is the fact that the book starts with a gay couple. From there, I got a lot of scientific theories and words that I later learned a few months ago. It’s the first book in the series (I think I heard some of my friends saying that it had been turned into a movie) and I understand that the words are on a level of it’s own.
