 Rating: - My first SK readI have just finished reading , and is my first Stephen King novel!! Not the type of book i would normally go for, but am so glad i did. I read the review which was posted about the book and ordered it. I was not disapointed. It kept my interest on so many levels. As I read each chapter, i found it made me want to read the next and then the next. I read the book in 48hrs and got very little done around the house. If you like a book that keeps you gripped and wanting more and you find yourself wanting to know what happens next....Buy it. I have read 2 other books which i would also highly recommend reading. The first was "Now Then Lad" which is another book once your into, you can't put down. Also "Pop goes the weasel" (v funny) Rating: - Just read the whole book in 24 hours - excellentI might be biased as I am a Stephen King fanatic but these are his best short stories yet. If you enjoy his work you will love these. If you are new to Stephen King and not sure if you will like his stuff then I would recommend this set of short stories as an introduction. As King is getting older (he turned 60 this year) these stories have a running theme throughout of mortality and what kind of afterlife there could possibly be (In stories such as Willa, The New York Times at Special Bargain rates). He also has an uplifting story about September 11th - someone who survived who was meant to be in the twin towers and how he comes to terms with this. The Gingerbread Girl I think is the best story in the book - I couldn't put it down until I'd finished - a woman who has lost a child starts running and just runs away from all her problems only to find a bigger problem where her running comes in handy. I don't want to give too much away but other themes are mid-life crisis (Stationary Bike), Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (N), a cat from hell (!) nuclear bombs, and a story involving a porta - loo. If you are a SK fan you probably already bought this, if not buy it if you like short stories, buy it if you like weird and wacky and stories, uplifting stories and stories that cause you to question the world. I got this book yesterday and just finished it as I couldn't put it down  Try searching the Internet for "Just After Sunset" or Ebay for "Just After Sunset".
