Really slow book, very hard to pay attention to so took months to finish reading. Definitely could have missed out some of the chapters, didn't really add to the plot at all.

I enjoyed everything except the end. The part where all the boys have sex with Bev I really did NOT like and did NOT need to read. Nor did I enjoy the part where Patrick jerks Henry off. These sexual acts involving 11 and 12 year olds were unnecessary. The suspense was good, as was the world building.

Once again, the movies are better…if only because you don’t have to put up with King’s egregious sex scenes and over the top racism. Seriously, someone needs to investigate this man.

I’ve surprisingly never read this book in it’s entirety, let alone listen the audiobook, but this is a gem of work from a madman. My overall impression is you have to have some serious screws loose to write this. Makes the movies feel like a preview of the actual story you get here!
