IXI_Fission_IXI 11/05/20 7:29:54 AM #1:	The movie is definitely a top five for me and i've been looking for a book to read for next month. Does the book offer anything the movie doesn't? I've never read a Stephen King novel. <cite>IXI_Fission_IXI posted [p:946754875] in Has anyone...

Lorenzo_2003 11/05/20 7:40:22 AM #3:	The Trent posted... theyre very very close iirc but its been like 20 years Jeez, yeah, same for me. I did read it and enjoyed it, but its been forever ago. I do not recall it differing all that much from the movie. Theres more of a passage of time and some details about the prison, but nothing too big. The movie was one of the few great Stephen King book to movie adaptions, but not surprising because Darabont also directed Shawshank. --- ... <cite>Lorenzo_2003 posted [p:946755067] in Has anyone...

SomaMaxwell 11/05/20 8:51:40 AM #15:	The book was infuriating to read. It came out in six tiny parts. I had to buy each one and then wait for the next one. Worth it but it made the book drag out. My mom got me the collected version for my birthday years later. I still have the original set somewhere, but am happy to have the collected work. --- Its hard being a mom! <cite>SomaMaxwell posted [p:946756681] in Has anyone...
