This is one of my favorite Stephen King books to read, but it’s just a liiiittle too long and there’s a bit too much nipple imagery. It’s great if you want to get super invested in a different world, though, because at the end, you’ll know EVERYTHING there is to know. I’d say it’s 100% worth the read if you don’t mind it being a little slow. (It does have just about every big content warning a book can have, the bad guys aren’t just the one monster)
