Ecletic Readers discussion

I am trying to get through this, it isn't that it is a bad book per-say it's just very long winded. The first story seems to just drag...ugh. I do give it credit though the premise of the first mystery is interesting, I just wished it didn't take so many words to reveal that.

LOL - That's why I don't read Stephen King.

Never read him before. What does he write?
