Nobody reads as much as my daughter - and not Stephen King’s drivel, either - but she’s going to join the military next year and insist on going to Iraq.
While a lot of my friends at home are avid readers, the ratio of avid readers among Americans in Iraq (military and civilian alike) is much higher.
It's like a giant book club - books are consumed, recommended, enthusiastically discussed and passed around. When a box of new books arrives, it's like Christmas.
Stephen King is full of elitist, limousine-liberal BS.
