I think it might be my new favorite by stephen king. Or tied with salems lot. I really enjoyed the story, it started off pretty strong and caught my attention from the beginning and just got better and better. The ending was a bit eh, but honestly I overall enjoyed the book enough to look past it.

F**k me in the a**, what a ride.
In a typical King-manner a strange ending on the last 30ish pages, but every page before that is really turner, very hard for me to have put it down.

People in a small town can be so crazy and all it needs is a devil's nudge.
