Not one of Kings best books. But I did like how some chapters had cliffhanger endings that made me want to continue reading.

Initially I started reading this and was reminded what I don't like about Stephen King. But then I got into it and I remembered what I do like about Stephen King.

Like most Stephen King books, it's a good story, with great characters but the details in it will dive you mad at times
