Sleeping Beauties
by Owen King, Stephen King
The worst SK book I have ever read even though I suspect it was mostly Owen's work. It was conpletely derivative of other better novels like The Stand and Under The Dome, but none of the character development that made those books what they were. Instead this is like an overly long non stop political screed in novel form with 10,000 characters none of whom you care about plodding through a plot that makes little sense.
This book seems to have been written with the idea to shoehorn in as many left wing tropes into the narrative as possible. That includes a ridiculously tacked on part near the end about a white police officer killing an armed black suspect.
Even if you like left wing and hyper feminist politics though I would still not recommend this book. It has nothing that make other King books so great. I would have DNFed this book had I not listened to the audio book at 2x speed. If you're working your way through the King catalog pass this up and go right to The Outsider.
