I stopped reading the book for a few days now. I have been busy with a lot of things and the only time that I get to read it is during late afternoons when there is enough sunlight from the window near where I sit and do reading. But having stopped reading doesn't mean that my mind was off the book. I am actually thinking about it a lot oftentimes. Like it sometimes just pops out of my mind.
Rose was able to get away. Far. About three hundred miles. I kept on asking is it far enough? How far is far enough? Daniels is maybe three hundred miles away, but it only takes one snap and the memory will start everything again. I sometimes feel afraid for Rose. And even if I still have a lot to know what are those that she's been into during those fourteen years, I cannot help but imagine more things other than already told.
This happens. To how many I don't know. But sometimes it gives me the creeps just thinking about Rose; what more if I will know more, like give me a figure to give me an idea how much women are went through, are going through, and will go through what Rose has been through.
Is there anything we women can do to prevent this from happening? How do we know that some guys are really prone to doing this?
Frankly, this is nothing new for Stephen King. I have read "Dolores Claiborne" and I think it was really very creative. As I read through the first few pages, I was thinking that this is another "Dolores." I almost put it down thinking that I've read this kind of stuff already. But then again, we know Stephen King... we don't know what is he still capable of thinking. That's why I have always like reading his works.
But.
Having read a few classical stories like Dickens, Hugo, Fitzgerald, Eliot, I think I am missing the genre. The fact that what I read before this was about the German/Hitler times, I think I'll grab another classical after King.
