I feel the need to write about this even though nobody probably cares

This is One weird book, of course Kootz is not your normal writer about everyday, average events. He seems to go past the realm of the ordinary and question what might be, what if? What would happen if?
I will not say I dislike Stephen King who does this on a much larger scale, but I find that I have a hard time following his books, or most of them anyway. There are some writers, that can get you lost but it's ok, you don't mind, it's like being lost in the country, eventually you'll find your way back and you enjoyed the ride, but for me being lost in a SK novel is like being lost in a different state or country and instead of going back home, you just start over from scratch, find a place to stay, a job and cut all ties with home.
Bad example. Here's what brought me to this little analogy. In 03/04 I had borrowed the book DreamCatcher from a chick I knew in Job Corps, I was doing fine with it,,, UNTIL I got to the part where one dude is driving a snow mobil across the forrest, that part I got but from the wording, there is something else going on that I'm just not getting, I backtracked, first to the beginning of the previous page, then, two page, three, to the beginning of scene, then the chapter and finally the beginning of the previous chapter.
I did this for well over an hour and finally I just walked up to the chick and for the first time in my life three the book at her.
On top of my eye hurting, my head killing me, my brain has turned to mush, I feel like I'm not steady I just gave up.
A couple weeks later the movie got rented and though at that time, had I had the opporunity, I would have just passed out of frustration but I watched the movie and knew exactly where the scene in the book had been and paid speceial attention to it,,, then it made perfect scense, one of the aliens was sitting on the back of it, which I understood I just didnt' understand from the wording that the alien had taken control of his mind.
When I was 21, I found The Stand, the uncut edition, around the house and out of boredom and maybe in a rut, a little restless or perhaps a little after-birth hormoans still affecting me, I don't what possessed me but I would take it as a challenge to read the whole thing cover to cover,,, it lasted about three weeks until the determination began to fade and I decided on one less chapter a night for about a week, then half a chapter for awhile then I think a page for two.
I am a huge fan of SK movies and yes, I have read, c2c a few of his books, I think I would prefer to watch the movies instead of reading the books, I hate it when I quit reading a book anywhere past the first two or three chapters, but if I don't understand it, I can't find or force interest in the rest of it and I've done that with a few of his novels.
DK writes in a much more direct manner, is to me, much easier to follow and with what I've read (which isn't much), his stories, you can imagine then happening, although it would a be stretch, a reach and not likely, but in a way you can see the events unfolding for real, just from the subject matter.
Now granted, I've only had an opportunity to read two of his books, so my opinion might change, like when I read two of Danielle Steel novels that I loved and tried to read like three others and decided it had been a fluke. I need to find a used bookstore thats willing to make a deal in trade, trade some of these books that have already been read by one of use and trade it for some books that haven't; not by use anyway.
Of course I may have to make the same deal twice on the same book; trade it once for something I like and read it then trade it for something my bf likes and can return that one.
Oh yeah, thats called a library isn't it?
Of course my bf would probably have to buy they're books after he feel asleep with it in the tub and drowned it.
Just an observation that I think is kind of weird.
