There was no reason for this audiobook to be almost 11 hours long. I thought, surely the whole book cannot be just the long walk but it is. 

Buckle up for a lot of teenage boy inner dialogue that is somehow both overly horny and very contemplative, kids getting

violently shot and killed when they stop walking for over two minutes

and Kings classic over descriptions. 

Also, the ending is classic King, and is annoyingly infuriating. If you are looking to read a King novel, look at almost any other book. It is well written, and you do get attached to the characters but that almost makes the book harder to read.

dark tense

3.0

Easy to read but I wasn't super into the ending, and a lot of things were repetitive. Super slow then all too fast.
