While the premise of the book is interesting, the book itself is seriously just them walking. I expected more action. And the ending, while I also like the idea of it, wasn’t a satisfying conclusion if that’s what you’re into. I also just found King’s descriptions of women uncomfortable at certain points in the novel.
Graphic: Death and Gore
Minor: Racial slurs
