Coming back wrong is an interesting premise, but I just didn't like this version. Partially because there's a toddler involved, partially because I didn't like the story in general. idk. King has some fetishes, and I'm tired of hearing about them maybe?
I don't feel like there's much original I can say about this. Like, I'm not put off King books now, but maybe I'll read reviews first?

My first Stephen King read, deep dark slow burn of a horror book. I appreciated the way it often touched on death, grief and loss of a loved one. I loved the overall premise of this book and what it's trying to say but half way through I had to pick up an audio to help me get through this because it dragged. I got more suspense/thriller vibes until about 20% left of the book. I think this could've been 50-100 pages less and been a 4-5 star read. The audio was great but still the story was just unnecessarily too long. I am new to the horror genre don't typically read from this genre, 2/5 on the scare scale for me, more creepy spooky than anything.
