This was awful. I would have DNF'd but I used this for a reading challenge prompt. What a horrible waste of words.

Loved most of the book, but i don't know how to feel about the ending just yet. I did HATE the 2 smaller stories included in this book though, especially the monkey one.

Very different from the movie but just as dread-inducing. I had fun with this one!

It was cool, but nothing special in my opinion. I got 50% in before I found out there was infidelity (I hate infidelity in books) but I pushed through. It wasn't too bad in context, but it still pissed me off a little. I always love Stephen King's writing and characters, but I didn't care about the characters in this.

It was a short easy read. My first Stephen King book I’ve read so far.!

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!
