Pros
- * Insomnia - Norway
- I’ve recently been on a Stephen King kick (Dark Tower series, “Insomnia")
- Can you suggest movies/tv shows like Valhalla murders , department of q , Insomnia ,etc
- Didn't realize it was connected, but I loved Insomnia and also found it interesting with older characters, and the "Fates" also love Greek Mythology.
- I loved Insomnia - it never fails to make me gaze around me thinking .. what if? Ya know? Like would I be Random? Or Purpose? The world of auras always just fills me with light and imagination.
Cons
- I just listened to it too and wanted to commiserate about sound effects in general. I guess they were intentionally wanting to make us feel as wretched as the characters. Dissonant creepy melodies, screeching strings, bouncing ball beari...
- Insomnia is the longest hardest read I think I've ever had, almost the first half of the book is almost completely nonsensical information it seems that doesn't really all come together until the second half, holy cow it was worth it though

* Insomnia - Norway
I just listened to it too and wanted to commiserate about sound effects in general. I guess they were intentionally wanting to make us feel as wretched as the characters. Dissonant creepy melodies, screeching strings, bouncing ball bearings and strange rubbery ripping noises… it was awful.

Big DT fan. Absolutely love Insomnia. One of his best.
People seem to either love or hate Insomnia. I love it, but it never fails to amuse me when folks who didn’t like it grumble about how long it is and all the (seeming) tangents it goes on in service of the beam - that’s what I love about it!
“Insomnia” by Stephen King is the third book in my epic 17-book journey to The Dark Tower. After reading the incredible “The Eyes of the Dragon”, I was excited to read this novel. ... I give “Insomnia” by Stephen King a perfect 5/5 since it did exactly what I was hoping for to help explain more things for my big trip.
