What a unique read. This is my first Stephen King, and I must say that I am pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed my time with it. It's long and a commitment, but I was interested throughout it all. King is a masterful writer with all the details and how this ultimately connected. Loved this exploration of time travel and the butterfly effect. I can't say that I'll eagerly pick up more Stephen King as I'm still a wimp and don't want to read the scary stuff, but this was a fun one!
