This sounds so good and interesting. Ive never read any of Stephen King books which is surprising, i will defo be downloading the sample on my kindle. Ive actually just downloaded The Dark Tower book one by Stephen King - anyone tried it?

This is a book that had me excited to get back to it after a reading session. Since I was around when the fatal shooting occurred I was curious as to how the author would handle the historic references. Every historic event made me feel as I was reliving the 60's. Kudos on a job well done.

really liked this book, loved the characters.

I'm reading this book now. Liked the Kindle sample and downloaded book as soon as the price dropped with paperback publication. So far it's a real page-turner (or should that be button-pusher?). Most who are 60+ years old will be fascinated by descriptions of life in 1959-1963, though certainly described through a 21st C lens.

I loved this book. Stephen King is the master of characters and bring plot lines together.

This is one of the worst King books I've read. The premise had me very excited, but the book was undone by the language--very worn and tired. It reads like it was written in a weekend.

one of my favourite reads of 2011. Loved the historical reference. It felt like I was really there. The concept of multiple timelines and destiny - how we are here to learn a lesson - very well portrayed!

The book was really good I would tell people about it

loved the first few hundred pages, the concept really captivated me and the story line was great, towards the end something changed and it wasn't so interesting anymore (right about where he gets beaten up, ends up in the hospital, memory loss, etc) and the ending was kind of a downer too; it's nice that him and Sadie are reunited in a way though

Not a bad book. Doesn't touch some of his greats but nevertheless a fine book with many attributes. However Horror being his main genre this seems to be unlike King. If anyone is looking for something more expected from stephen king, perhaps Stephen Alexander's Book of Neophyte may help. As it were it feels as though there's a new master on the scene.

A brilliant book! King really delivers in terms of plot and intrigue - I couldn't put it down and was haunted by Jake and Sadie's ill-fated romance long after reading the last page. I found the whole concept of going back in time and trying to change a crucial event in history fascinating - who hasn't ever wondered what would happen if we could change one little event in our past, and how our life would be changed. King also really captures the atmosphere of the late 50's and early 60's, so well that you can almost taste, smell and feel the towns and people Jake encounters on his journey. The butterfly effect is well thought out and gives room for thought, and Jake's efforts in doing the right thing are endearing and make you want to keep reading to see what happens. I also loved King's writing style, which is alive and flowing well - this book will go into my list of favourite reads to revisit again one day. Loved it!

i enjoyed most of the book... but the insistance that they needed to know it was lee was a bit much.... why not kill him and see what happens, why have to be 100 percent positive about it. lovely romance novel though

I enjoyed this book, one of his more lighthearted, no great horrer or terror a story that holds you till the end to see what his ideas of the future would be.

Didn't finish it. Very dissappointed. I agree with Arnie69.

Great book. I even went out and bought it so i can keep it.
