If you're wondering if all those review sites ranking this number one of Stephen King books are true to its words, they are. A true page-turning. Scary as hell. Might be the scariest psychological-thriller as of yet (not that I have a lot of experience on it, book-wise).

Terceira obra do Stephen King que leio e gostei bastante.

Como sempre nos livros do King a mistura de realidade e sobrenatural é o que mais me fascina. Mais da metade do livro é só focado na cabeça dos personagens, especialmente Jack e o alcoolismo e a luta com a sobriedade.

Foi uma leitura bem triste e desconfortável no começo justamente por isso. Ele vai te jogando pra mente complexa de Jack até você mesmo se questionar o quão perto de ser um Jack você está. Normalmente sempre leio a noite com copinho de bebida na mão, porém esse livro me deixou averso a bebida, pelo menos nas semanas em que lia ele.

Conforme os elementos sobrenaturais vão aparecendo eu já estava anestesiado pelo mal estar que o livro te deixa no começo. De qualquer forma é fascinante a escrita alucinante de King.
