Interesting novella with just the hint of the supernatural. King masterfully leaves you wondering what actually happened at story's end.

Audio. Read by the incomparable Frank Muller. It was good- I think I listened to it somewhat out of context, not realizing it was part of a bigger picture. I almost think that the horror element of this was overstated- like he had to make it a horror story instead of just a hauntingly sad story of a woman trying her best to see her pregnancy through. I liked it, though.

An amazing tale-within-a-tale of the super-willed woman who doesn't give up on her pregnancy no matter what! And that of a mysterious club!!

Entertaining enough to listen to while driving. Over all listening to a story about a man, telling a story about a woman by another man was a little complicated although not too hard to follow. I was a bit confused what the actual message of the story was about - like what was the point? If it was supposed to b a scary short story then fine, but there really wasn't a real meaningful message to me. Overall just okay.
