Anyone who enters his store finds the object of his or her lifelong dreams and desires: a prized baseball card, a healing amulet. Leland Gaunt opens a new shop in Castle Rock called Needful Things. “A read in the tradition of The Stand” ( Booklist). Stephen King’s #1 national bestseller about a store where Leland Gaunt can sell you whatever your heart desires-sexual pleasure, wealth, power, or even more precious things-but not without exacting some price in return. What it’s about (synopsis via Goodreads) : That’s not a particularly impressive reading rate… but, I keep moving forward. Of the 100 books I’ve chosen for Shelf Control, I’ve managed to read only 11 so far, plus one more that I DNFd and one that went in my most recent discard pile. And the scary thing is that I’m not in any danger of running out of unread books on my shelves. THIS IS MY 100th SHELF CONTROL POST! Wooooooo. See the guidelines at the bottom of the post, and jump on board! Want to join in? Shelf Control posts go up every Wednesday. Pick a book you own but haven’t read, write a post about it (suggestions: include what it’s about, why you want to read it, and when you got it), and link up! For more info on what Shelf Control is all about, check out my introductory post, here. Shelf Control is a weekly celebration of the unread books on our shelves. Welcome to Shelf Control - an original feature created and hosted by Bookshelf Fantasies.
