Take my word, it was painful to read. Just my opinion. The Stand was good, but Insomnia was not.
I am a fan of SK and have his full collection (pre-1995). I'm a Mainer too for that matter. God Love Maine!
I would actually like to take my family on a vacation to Maine sometime in the future, during the fall when the leaves turn. My parents went on a vacation to New Hampshire a couple of years ago around that time and the pictures they took of the fall leaves turning were simply stunning. Beautiful country.
