I’ve had this book for a few years, never touching it. Brought it with me this summer to read while off-grid doing field work. I didn’t know anything about the book besides the first few pages. Coincidentally, I finished reading it a week after Trump’s attempted assassination. Weird.

James Franco did great with the audiobook, though I had to accelerate his slow reading to 1.30 speed. Really interesting premise, and I really enjoyed the 3rd person omniscient view where we got to jump from character to character, sometimes even within a scene. And I liked that some of the scenes involved bystanders watching Johnny, the main character. I've noticed that King often goes for a slow, slow burn, and this book was no exception. That said I remained interested all along and cared about the characters. The only part that bothered me was
Johnny's vision of the rapist while in the act of abusing a child. Far too graphic for me
