I am not a fan of horror so was wary of Steven King but this book is not horror, more of a thriller/mystery, and has so many great layers. All the positive reviews are accurate, such an interesting and kind of beautiful book. Maybe started out a bit slow with so many details and a few moments felt weird but I wasn’t really bored - the details were amazing.
