A really nice post by Tommy.<\/a><\/p>\n

I decided to do a little King catch-up – I got excited about it after our big Stephen King conversation here the other day. Found a copy of Rose Madder<\/a>\"\"<\/i> at a cool second-hand bookstore in Hoboken, bought it for a dollar, and I am now a quarter of the way through.<\/p>\n

That’s the thing. When they’re good, they’re good. And it’s like … you literally cannot put it down.<\/p>\n

I have not read Rose Madder<\/i>, by the way – so please don’t spoil it! I have NO idea what will happen.<\/p>\n

Although now it is becoming apparent that there is something, shall we say, odd<\/i> about the painting she bought in the pawn shop … and it seems to be … shifting within its frame … either zooming out … or moving back … who knows … It’s damn creepy, whatever it is. Imagine looking up on the wall at a painting you love, and suddenly seeing something coming in from one side that was never there before. As though the “camera” had moved over 5 inches, to see what was beyond the frame.<\/p>\n
