It was... fine. King has such a great way of creating a character out of a setting, and I actually enjoyed all of his descriptions of the Lot. But once again, I'm left incredibly disappointed by his female characters. They're so flat, so lifeless, so same. I didn't really connect with any of the characters and found myself not caring too much what happened to them. It was certainly spooky, I'll give it that!
