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!

A tense and thrilling tale. Love the ambiguous ending. Interesting to identify similarities in the main concept of Stranger Things.

Does Stephen King ever not set a book in Maine?

Good quick read, though I wouldn’t say I liked this more than The Long Walk. I sort of have a bigger appreciation for it now.

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!
