A really charming read, a perfect comeback to the town of castle rock. Surprisingly a great “feel good” read.

Unfortunately I am becoming a Stephen King fan. I suspect his diehards would not enjoy this one as there's barely a supernatural aspect since it's really more of a metaphor. Also, surprise! There's a short story called Laurie in here too which purists would also likely hate. A widower takes his puppy for a walk and chaos ensues but really it's just like... some thoughts about life and death.
