This is the first Stephen King I read. Obv, he would be a talented writer so I was really immersed and interested in the story from the beginning. All the characters were well built and each had a real impact on the story that was well shown. I haven't read too many 500+ books, but I can imagine the pace can be hard to maintain but King did a good job at it. There only a few parts which lost my interest but overall it was there. The storyline itself was good and had a lot to offer.
It can be triggering in severely categories and I felt I had to take take a breather at one point.
