Green Mile Book 2: The Mouse on the Mile: The Green Mile, Part 2

The more I read the sadder I get

This book was brilliant. I have been reading the Green Mile in parts and I must say this is the best one of the series. Great characters and writing.

After reading Part I, I raced to part II to find out a little more about life on Death Row. I was not dissapointed. Part II keeps up the suspense and I recomend it to anyone who loves a book that you can't put down.

From a 13 y/o perspective. The Mouse on the Mile continues Stephen King's look into life of people on death row through the memories of prison guard Paul Edgecombe. This book introduces many new characters. There's a mouse that gets the name Steamboat Willie from one of the guards and Mr. Jingle's from one of the new prisoners. There's a really mean new prisoner William Wharton, who gives the bad guard Percy Whetmore, something to remember at the end of the book and makes me want to start reading the next book to find out what happens to Percy. A french man, Eduard Delacroix, and a gentle black man John Coffey. They are all waiting their turn for the electric chair, and finally the electric chair itself with the execution of the Cheif. This book is more exciting than the first. As always King leaves you hanging on the edge of your seat at the end of the book and you are racing to pick the next one up and get your nose in it. This book is not for those weak in the stomach. It is graphic in language and the description of many things that happen in a death row. I would recommend it to adults and others my age if they remember it's just a book and not to let it bother them. Off to start reading Coffey's Hands, Book #3 of the Green Mile Series.

I'm really impressed with this series so far. Good charcters, good storyline, good grief I'm holding my breath for the next one. This one ends on a suspenseful note and I like that. It's classic Stephen King.

Stephen har gjort det igen, misslyckats... Ända sedan sina första böcker har Stephen varit rent sagt urusel. Du som läser detta blir inte glad och det är just det som är meningen. Igentligen tyckte jag nog om boken men det kan bli tråkigt med alla positiva människor och deras glada och okritiska tankar. Så sug kuk och håll käften...
