I have been a King fan for 20 years, and I have to say, this book definitely got me. I love Kings' dynamics and his unique style of writing, and he always has me on the edge of my seat. However, might I say, that this book really threw me into every emotional wall that I have. There were times I was upset that I bought it, and was ready to donate it, because of how intense it was getting. But, I'm glad that I stuck through to the end. Now, im going to make the Maine man proud, and subject all those I love to this; gripping, intense, horrifyingly fantastic book. A little nod at the end in the authors notes that I hope to all that is spooky is true.
