I found it very interesting and it has a very nice and pleasant ending for a horror novel. I finished it in 2 days, it was a nice and informing brain twisting read!

I loved that!
Really tense, really heavy Lovecraftian horror.
Disgusting, brutal, and dark.
Definitely one of my favorite King novellas.

I honestly would’ve given this five stars but the random sex scene in the supermarket while they were under siege, where his kid was sleeping, and while the main character didn’t know if his wife was dead or alive threw me off so bad. Like it wasn’t even badly written is was just so fucking dumb.
