Here's a proposed list for 2012 reads. I skipped the screenplay for Storm of the Century, since I didn't see many people wanting to read a screenplay. I'm also thinking that Black House should maybe be stretched over November and December since the holidays can be busy days. What do you guys think?

January – The Green Mile (The Two Dead Girls, The Mouse on the Mile, Coffey's Hands)
February - The Green Mile (The Bad Death of Eduard Delacroix, The Night Journey, Coffey on the Mile)
March – Desperation
April – The Regulators
May – The Dark Tower IV: Wizard and Glass
June – Bag of Bones
July – The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon
August – Hearts in Atlantis
September - On Writing
October – Dreamcatcher
November – Black House
December - Everything's Eventual

By the way, I've been using this Wikipedia list as a bibliography: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_King_bibliography

If anything seems to be missing or out of place, please do let me know.

Thanks for the list, jseger. It looks like a good year of reading ahead!

Edited to add: I'd be happy if Black House was stretched over two months. I'm often behind and can always use the extra time to catch up!

Thank you for putting up the list. Looks like another fun year of reading Stephen King!

Yeah, I've really been looking forward to rereading Desperation and The Regulators and I've never read The Green Mile, Bag of Bones or The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon. It ought to be a good year.

Thanks, jseger. Even though I am behind I love to see what's in store for me. It does look like a great year.

I read The Green Mile when it was released monthly (or however) in six little books. Talk about torture! The wait was killer.

Are we going to do this again in 2013? I've fallen behind but I'm still interested in continuing.

>6 PaperbackPirate: I wasn't sure if I should continue to post monthly threads or not, jseger used to be pretty active in this group and would take charge of setting things up. (But I don't mind doing it if that's what people want.) As far as I can tell, the remaining books to read (using the wikipedia list above and not counting some of the e-books and things) are:
Everything’s Eventual
From A Buick 8
The Dark Tower V: Wolves of the Calla
The Dark Tower VI: Song of Susannah
The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower
The Colorado Kid
Cell
Lisey’s Story
Blaze
Duma Key
Just After Sunset
Under The Dome
Blockade Billy
Full Dark, No Stars
11/22/63
The Dark Tower: The Wind Through The Keyhole

Thanks, LL. I'm far behind but intend to get caught up one day. The lists make it easy.
