11/23/63 by Stephen King

It's been years since I've read a Stephen King novel, and I probably would have pushed this one away if I hadn't read and heard several good reviews. The novel is massive (over 800 pages) and I couldn't imagine that it could hold my interest without losing me somewhere in the middle. But it kept me reading. It's obvious that Stephen did his research. The book is loaded with information about the Kennedy assassination and Lee Oswald. Plus there are a variety of characters woven into the plot that are interesting and likeable. Yes, there were a few times that I wanted to shout "get on with it" - but I still highly recommend it. -June
