Dreamcatcher
by Stephen King
This. Book. Is. Terrible.
It's so bad that after starting it, I realized that I hated it so much the first time around I stopped reading Stephen King on a regular basis. Up until then, I had been reading them as they came out. Since I'm now reading or re-reading all of King in publication order, it's time to read this again after two decades, and...ugh. It's just so, so bad.
This is the book King wrote while recovering from being hit by a car. He's a pro, and can write anything, so the issue isn't necessarily the writing (although it does have some of King's worst dialog). The problem here is that it's filled with author's choice after choice and they're all bad. The plot, the characters, the situations...they're all terrible. I hated virtually every page of this book.
My Goodreads ratings all start at three stars. I drop one if a book is bad. To get one star, a book has to offend me in some way. I'm making an exception in this case, because it's only offensive in that it's painful to read.
Ugh. It's so bad. I will never read it again.
