this is a great read! I listened to this as an audiobook and the narrator was really great, her subtle changes in voice and inflection made it so easy to understand and keep track of a story with so many characters and a changing POV. As far as story, this is my first Stephen King book and It hooked me. His way of sprinkling details of the end throughout the whole book made the full reveals so much more gratifying. I didn’t love Holly as a character, yet I listened to this in every spare moment I got.

I really like Holly Gibney. I hope this isn’t the last time we hear from her. The master has done a great job with this tale of crazy oldies. Enough terror and goriness to delight in. ❤️

Me pasa con los libros de Stephen King q son muy disfrutones, me encanta leerlos, y me gusta mucho como hacer a sus personajes. Además Stephen King me cae bastante bien.
Igualmente siempre hay algunas cosas que no me convencen del todo, pero son todo cosas personales:
-prefiero no saber lo q está pasando desde el principio
-no me gusta tanto que se mencionen cuestiones actuales como el covid o políticas, pero evidentemente esto es esencial en una historia que se desarrolla en la época actual. No incluirlo sería omitir la realidad, y tampoco creo que eso esté bien.
Simplemente prefiero historias ambientadas en otras épocas, pero eso ya es cosa mía

Elderly cannibals should be wild, but these ones were a snooze. Predictable plot, slow pacing, and a main character I just couldn’t click with. Started intrigued, ended bored—but I’m too stubborn to DNF.
