The feeling of this book is really haunting. Part one has really set the tone of this serial (6 parts). It depicts a pretty horrendous crime so you know what type of people our narrator is dealing with, but I am thankful that he has not shared more than he has needed to. I really am enjoying the narrators voice, it is oddly calm, but I can tell something big is going to be shown to me. I am going to be jumping into part 2 as soon as I can.

I’m completely biased. I’ve read this book as a whole novel, and not serialized, before. I love the movie. And this part is really good.

This is book 1 of a series and only 100 pages long. I already saw the movie so I knew what was going to happen. It's heartbreaking what happened to the little girls.

Loved the first book of the green mile. Some things are different then the movie. Great, powerful writing that lets the imagination going. A modern classic story. Hope to enjoy part 2 even more!
