So this is the first Peter Straub book that I have read and I am not sure when I will get around to read another. I do have Koko and his collabs with King, but I just don't know. This book just droned on and on to me and I spent most of the book waiting. Waiting for what, I do not know. But I was waiting the whole book and just never fully engaged. It's going to get a 2.5 star rating from me. For all the 'hype' around this one I was just not overly impressed. Thank you, next.
