As per usual when reading a Stephen King novel I loved it. The characters were great. Sometimes they can be a little…jarring when Mr King decides to write any child (or teen tbh) character. But this time around I liked Dinah as a character. I was surprised by how many characters made it to the end. I know this is a movie but I’ve never actually seen it so I didn’t know how it would end and was actually really surprised by how much I liked it. Another thing Stephen King sometimes struggles with is an ending, but this I felt wrapped up very nicely instead of rage inducing.
