"We had once again succeeded in destroying what we could not create." - Stephen King, The Green Mile

"We each owe a death, there are no exceptions, I know that, but sometimes, oh God, the Green Mile is so long" - Stephen King, The Green Mile

'The Green Mile' was a beautifully tragic story. I really enjoyed reading this, and it made me very emotional throughout the entire book. I really felt for the characters, especially John Coffey, and a couple of them I fucking despised! You know a book is good when it can bring out so many emotions from you. This book is short for a Stephen King novel, and it doesn't go overboard with the supernatural stuff. So if you enjoy Stephen King, I highly recommend this book!

Lange opbouw naar een heel mooi verhaal. Niet wat ik had verwacht maar ik ben nu wel benieuwd naar andere verhalen van Stephen King

This book was suspenseful, but the beginning dragged a little bit for me. I had a hard time getting into it, but once the pieces started falling into place, I couldn’t put it down. I enjoyed how King interwove the past and present to tell the story and was intrigued by both plots. The ending was heartbreaking, and extremely unexpected.

This was my first Stephen King novel and I look forward to reading more in the future.
