jjosh_h 's review for:

Four Past Midnight by Stephen King
3.0

You can see my full review and discussion in my September 25th, 2020 Friday Reads.

I enjoyed the Langoliers. It was easy enough and fun. I always loved the tv movie even tho it's really bad. 3/5

Secret Window, Secret Garden was a solid story. It appears entirely natural but still delightfully unnerving. The main character makes some dumb decisions, but it comes together in the end. 4/5 stars

The Library Police was fun. It was the perfect example of King turning an absurd premise into a terrifying reality. In the end, it fell flat. The monster felt like a rehash of others he has made. 3/5

The Sun Dog is a story I knew nothing about coming in, and I was presently surprised. It was a dark fun ride, and I think just good enough to bump up this collection above a 3 star. 4/5 star.

This collection was a lot fun, even the stories I gave 3 stars. I love the Langoliers even if I think its nothing special. Sometimes, I just want a bit of mindless fun, and this it just that.
3.5/5 stars
