didn’t like it. i wish king fleshed out the electrical wires thing more. it showed up so much in the beginning only to be half-assedly mentioned once later on. HATED the unnecessary sexuality. how many times does this dude have to mention his massive erection?

A group a people get trapped in a grocery store when a mysterious mist rolls and the people realize there are creepy creatures that will kill you.  This novella is so unsettling with the ominous mist and hidden creatures within that can tear you in half.  The tension between the characters creates a lot of engaging drama that made me nervous.
