Two things I learned while reading this book. 1) King takes quite a bit to describe the exposition for the story. 2) King is also very bad to read on a deadline

Those two points aside, I thought this was a great book - especially once you got past the initial 150-200 pages for the backstory. Once I hit a certain point I really didn’t want to stop reading

I would definitely recommend this to someone who is interested in King but isn’t sure about diving into his mountain of horror books. Just don’t read it on a deadline like I did for a bookclub
