I don't know what I was thinking when I started the longest King book in the middle of my first grad semester. I HATE that it took me this long to read, but it felt like a friend that I could come back to and escape reality just a bit.
As for the novel, it is exactly what I expected. Nick Andros is one of my favorite characters that King has written. I'm glad I didn't pick this up during the pandemic. It's a great read for now. M-O-O-N. That spells amazing.
