I must admit I found the ending quite abrupt and felt it was lacking. It left me feeling quite disappointed because it was such a build up for nothing.
I did find the concept of the story very interesting with the sense of the unknown. I feel that there was not enough time to enjoy the characters or build a connection to any of them.
I’ll definitely give a different Stephen King Book a try!

I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the narrator upon first listen, but his voice quickly grew on me. He has a great diversity of voices for the characters, even when the differences are a bit more subtle.
I watched the movie several years back, and while I enjoyed it, I think I ended up liking the book better. That’s always how it goes, isn’t it?
Now that I have a taste of what King is like, I’m really excited to start looking into his other works. Time to start expanding my TBR…
