This is a quick, fun read. I wanted to read it after listening to an interview with King on Fresh Air--this book was his trial at a murder mystery. And it is, though it's also got his supernatural spin and a 1970s nostalgia that feels autobiographical. You'll like it if you're a King fan.

Great fun summer read. I wasn't expecting where it was going but I was glad where it ended up.

A bit rushed/crammed with the whodunit, but still had the classic Stephen King buildup.
