Waiting on Wednesday: 'Joyland' by Stephen King
Waiting on Wednesday is hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine. This week I'm waiting for:
Stephen King's 'Joyland' which comes out this June!
What are you waiting for?
Stephen King's 'Joyland' which comes out this June!
Set in a small-town North Carolina amusement park in 1973, Joyland tells the story of the summer in which college student Devin Jones comes to work as a carny and confronts the legacy of a vicious murder, the fate of a dying child, and the ways both will change his life foreverI don't read a lot of Stephen King but I love scary novels and Stephen King is, well, the king when it comes to that!
What are you waiting for?
I haven't read Stephen King in forever, though he was one of my top favorite authors in my teens! I need to change that again... I haven't heard of this book before, but I've been fascinated with the idea of carnival/circus settings lately, so this is perfect :) Thanks for pointing it out to me!

King is always good for scary. I've read his novels sporadically. Thanks for stopping by
ReplyDeleteI've never actually read any Stephen King books. This seems pretty intriguing. Thanks for stopping by ;)
ReplyDeleteHeard about this new King novel, one of two he has coming out this year. The other is a sequel to The Shining. I haven't read anything by King recently, but have his 11/22/63 in my TBR pile.
