5.0

I first attempted to read this a few years ago, and it just didn’t hook me. I’ve been known to read a chapter or two at a library or bookstore, and if I still want to know what happens next, I’ll get the book. But for whatever reason, it just didn’t appeal to me the first time around. Then a year or two later, my son gave me a copy as a gift, because he knew it was one of the few King novels I didn’t already own. And when I tried it again, it held my attention. I think at first I wasn’t clued in to the nuances of the setup early enough. But once I caught on to where the story was going, that was enough to keep me reading.
