My 1st Stephen King's book n I like it.
It feels fast-paced in an overall medium-paced setting(?). Probably because you feel tense all the time with nerve and anticipation. It gets real dark too (so vivid!) and at many points I had to sit up reading because it got too uneasy(in a good way, i guess) to be lying down, cozy in bed.
I highly recommend the audiobook read by Lindsay Crouse, she did a phenomenal job bringing the story, and characters (esp. Annie) to live! Got all sort of chills listening to her narration as I read along and it made the whole experience even more enganging! 11/10!
