3.0

Let me start by saying this book took me 5 months to read... That is because I think the first half moves really slow. King is really good at adding filler to bring more depth to the characters but in this case I found it to be unnecessary. That being said the ending was great! It was super fast paced and I really enjoyed the character interactions also it made me rethink my thoughts on Jake's character so that's a plus. Overall i'm back into this series and can't wait to start the 4th book!!
