I normally don't love women written by men but I'll give credit, King really did a wonderful job in this book. Jessie & the many variations of voices she hears throughout this book was so interesting and for a book with primarily one location setting it is absolutely fascinating.
I really truly love this book so much, I don't know if I'll ever be able to read it again but I LOVE it.

The twist at the end was laughable and had nothing to do with the story prior the last 40 pages. Terrible.

i feel like this is one king could have probably kept in the drawers, idk the writing and ‘plot’ to me just seemed very offhand (mind the pun💀) and i very much got the feeling nothing was planned out too deeply, just all a bit here and there ya know. as much as i was enraptured reading it, i wouldn’t say it was something i majorly enjoyed, if that’s even the right word to use for a book like this hahaha! i love king and his work and i think he has a godlike talent for writing but i just wouldn’t use this particular work of his as an example for that…
