Coffey😢

Why I'm crying

Another quicky...

I've enjoyed the way this story is in part's. It has helped in me getting throught it much faster than I normally would. The fact the storie is VERY good help's too!!!! I would recommend this serie's to reader's of any age.

FAN 4 LIFE

This book is an emotional roller coaster. At first we're faced with an enormous black man named John Coffey on death row-also known as the green mile- who is awaiting execution for the rape and murder of seven year old twin sisters. As the story goes on, John's God given gift to heal the sick and his telepathic powers convince the guards of his innocents. The man in charge of "The Green Mile", Paul Edgecombe is left to choose between killing one of God's Miracles and keeping his job. The ending is a real tear jerker.

Keeping it interesting!

Well, now that I am through 3/6 of the Green Mile Books, I think it is safe to say that this novel is SK's best. I read The Running Man, a book which I thought could have been better, Thinner (could have been WAY better), Storm of the Century (No complaints there), and I am 3/4 the way through The Stand (So far the nearest competitor to The Green Mile besides Storm of the Century). Out of all those books, I think that The Green Mile is 100x better. The Green Mile, instead of being just the average SK Good vs. Evil story, is a story that forces you to keep in mind who the bad guys are ( I often found myself rooting for Delacrioux). I used to be a great supporter of the Death Penalty, but after reading the first 3 books of The Green Mile, I don't think I could ever support it again. One thing is for sure, I hope Percy gets what's coming to him!

Suspending! Absolutly great! So surprised at the outcome

This was a great Stephen King Book. The ending was great. I mean come on people were complaining about $2.50 a book. It is so worht it. Buy this book. It is a great book for young adults to start out. If you are looking to start reading king. this is the first thing you should read.

As good As it gets! Stephen keeps you wanting more,read it!

The Green Mile,Coffey's Hands- continues the mystery of a large gentle man on death row. The prisoner seems mild,not likely to use the great power in him arms and hands. Convicted of a tragic crime, Coffey waits on death row and exhibits an unusual gift...King's Shawshank Redemption was an intimate look at prision from the prisoners viewpoint. The Green Mile uses the viewpoint of the death row guards, and no one's closer to prison life than that. More than just a dreary life of awaiting death, this story keeps you guessing and wantingto know more about Coffey--and what he means to the others on death row. Another terrific read for Stephan King fans!A series in six parts, I can't wait for the other three
