dark mysterious tense fast-paced

Just another King book that could've been 200 pages shorter.

Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I enjoyed the idea of the story and I find a lot of part relatable in which I ask myself… “would I really do all these seemingly innocent stuff to get what I think I need?”. Humans can really be quite scary.

The only part that I didn’t really enjoy was that some parts seems to drag on for a while and I felt that the ending was a little abrupt although it’s still nice.

Not good. 

4.5/5
One of Kings better novels. Gaunt is probably one of my favorite Stephen King villains.
