The Stand by Stephen King
4.75
dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Another 4.75 star book by Stephen King for me. The beginning felt really slow and I was wondering when the more exciting part would start. There are quite a lot of characters, so I get that there are a lot of backstories, but the book got a lot better when different stories came together. However, that took quite a while.
Longest book I've ever read so far.

The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there ... and still on your feet.
