Great writing, love the characters, a genuinely scary book. Bit too long and some of the nasty bits felt unnecessary.

It took a little while to get into but then I couldn't put the book down. This is my 2nd Stephen King book I've read and I really enjoyed it, looking forward to reading more of his books.
