That said, I don't think I've ever read a longer book and finishing it left me exhausted! At a certain point reading felt like a chore, although some sections were really thrilling and moved quickly.
I would have given a higher rating (4 or 4.25), but I wasn't really prepared for all the racial slurs and racist stereotypes/impressions/jokes, and it really majorly detracted from my enjoyment in reading the book.

that being said i absolutely loved reading this book cover to cover. it was so captivating and intricately written, more so than the majority of books i’ve read. stephen king has easily become one of my favorite authors. i loved the characters and their friendships and how strong and unqiue each personality was. sometimes in books they over-develop the main character and under-develop the side characters but everyone got equal effort put into them which i really
appreciated.
I’m so glad i read this book when i did cuz im starting the year with such a high point. this will definitely be in my top 5 as well!!
5 stars
