Guess what? A group of crazy, fun-lovin’ bloggers put this read-along together and if I had not read it earlier, I’d be the first in line to sign-up. Okay, others have already signed up so I would not have been first but you know what I mean.
Although I will not be reading the book again, I have made myself their unofficial cheerleader! And when the miniseries comes out this June, I plan to watch and discuss via Twitter using the hashtag #domealong.
If this sounds like a fun way to spend the summer, then head on over to Coffee and a Book Chick for details!
Thanks for recommending. I want to read this one and read-along would be a great way to do it. hmmm….
The book was great too. I felt it was King’s return to his classic style of writing.
Thanks for posting about it! And, yes, cheerleaders are all welcome! This is one heck of a chunky book and it’s Uncle Stevie so support groups should also commence! 🙂 It’s going to be a fun ride!
TI, I read this one when it first came out, so I won’t be joining either. But, I will be watching the mini-series and I can’t wait to chat about it with you all on twitter 🙂 I saw that King will be on Parade magazine this weekend talking about books.
I can’t wait to watch this!
Thanks for the Heads Up Ti! I just joined. Under the Dome is one of the few Kings I haven’t read…
Your enthusiasm is getting me really excited to start!
I’m looking forward to this series on tv.
Will my cheerleader show up here? */*
applause!!
crud, nope. (it’s the star-backslash-zero-forwardslash-star) It’s been accused of being a martini…
LOL. Sometimes emoticons show and sometimes not.
Rah Rah! Sis boom bah!! I am all over the place.
I’m not a fan of fantasy and sci-fi fiction, but it’s just interesting to see a Steven King novel being adapted into a TV series. I don’t think I’ll be joining the read-along but will be most curious to find out later how this translate into screen. Also, I’m not a fan of Hunger Games, or Games of Thrones either. So … but somehow Steven King seems different. 😉
King’s stuff has been translated to TV before but those efforts were not successful, in my opinion. The Stand for TV was horrible! The Langoliers was also horrible. There have been others but I think I blocked them out.
I should really join in for this one. I’ve wanted to read it for a while and I bet the audio is great. I did not however know it was being made into an tv series. I hope it’ll show in Canada too.
The book was a lot of fun and I really didn’t feel its length when I read it a couple of years ago.
I enjoyed this book and totally plan on watching the miniseries. Cannot WAIT to see how they pull off the ending!
I worry about the ending myself. You know how hokey King TV projects are, right?
Thanks for posting this. This will be my first King book. You’re always raving about him so I’m finally going to try him out.
Readers may not all agree on the content he includes in his books, but I think most can agree that he is great storyteller. Under the Dome was really good. His books got a little wonky after his near death experience but I felt Dome was his return to what I remember his writing to be like.
