Sleeping Beauties: A Novel

This book allows you to be interested while reading it but able to put it down when you have to. Loved the story line and characters... Loved closing the book and rehashing what I just read far into the night while trying to sleep. A supernatural force cause every woman in the world to sleep and watches what happens when you take out the fairer, gentler sex from the equation. I have higher hopes for the male species than the authors did, however, I can definitely see how they came to their ideas.

People it's written with his son,and maybe it's actually his sons own work and dad just put his name on to help it sell,and just like many of our favorite bands,they cant all be #1 hits jeez!! I have noticed however his stories aren't as raw as his first works ,(IT,misery,tommyknokkers,the shinning,desperation, regulators,.....he's getting on in age ,people do slow down lol..when I was a teenager I used to have these dreams that were so unbelievably horrifying, but I couldn't put it in words I could remember them so vividly for about two weeks then the next one came...I tried to write them down...funny I cant write but I became an artist lol

I genuinely loved this book, and would recommend it to anyone looking for something thoughtful, different, contemporary and well-paced to read. I see alot of people attributing this book to Stephen King but the writing style wasn't Stephen King's at all. It was much more sarcastic and quippy in style, and I mean that in a good way. It seems obvious to me that Owen wrote this book and his father merely assisted. In any case, it is one of the best books I've ever read, and that is not hyperbole. It is gripping from beginning to end, a fascinating story with wonderful and we'll fleshed-out characters. The ending was a very refreshing change of pace from what one would expect after reaching the three quarter mark. That's another reason that I'm positive it is not a Stephen King work, because the ending is utterly bittersweet and perfect, and in no way taints all that preceded it, making you realize that you wasted your time reading it.
