Christian DuChateau at CNN offers notes on several books considered to be "hot reads." In the non-King literary world (there is one), he reviews 'The Son' by Philipp Meyer, 'A Serpent's Tooth' by Craig Johnson, 'The Shining Girls' by Lauren Beukes and 'The Ocean at the End of the Lane' by Neil Gaiman.
He takes a moment to highlight Joyland and then offers this insight:
While the story is at times dark and intense, there's less of King's trademark horror and more of the wistful nostalgia and emotion that will remind fans of "Stand by Me" and "The Green Mile," especially for its bittersweet and moving conclusion.The full CNN article, Hot Reads For June, can be found at www.cnn.com
