I have read ( I think) everything Stephen King as written, I enjoyed this book, but donโt think itโs up there with his best. For me, his best work was the Dark Tower series ( I thought the ending was perfect but I know a lot of people would disagree!)and some of his short stories are absolutely brilliant, 1922 and the fireworks one at the lake spring to mind. This one has good character development but I found the bonds developed among his neighbours a little sugary. Does that really happen? But overall itโs a good read and the ending is satisfying.
