Reading Response # 9 / Reading Recommendation

I've switched my attention to Stephen Kings novel Everything's Eventual( 14 Dark Tales ) Mr.King is a fabulous and very inspiring writer to me. I adore his work with everything in me, his great detail, and outstanding explanations really gets you attached to the book.
Now in this book, there are 14 short stories so explaining the plot would be a waste of time, i will however explain my favorite story from this novel. It's called 1408. ( Which was also made into a movie but in my opinion the book is always better ) That's besides the point.. Mike Enslin is a ghost writer, he stays in haunted cities, houses, shops, and writes about his encounters. He decides to stay at the Dolphin Hotel in room 1408 which is formally known as the " death in one hour "  hotel room. The manager trys everything to convince him to stay in an upgraded room for the same price, but he denies, That was mistake number one. He's put through obstetrical and challenges to stay alive.  I adore the great detail in this book, while reading you can see exactly what is happening. I also like the chapter transitions, it explains everything very clearly so you're never lost. It's also very thrilling and attaching, you won't want to stop reading once you have started. I recommend this book to those who enjoy a good thriller/horror story, I know I do.
