I just could not put it down. It is horrific and terror awaits at every turn. King is just a master at developing his characters and making the hair on the back of my neck stick up. I have seen the movie of course, but the book is sooo much better. There's a different ending and Wendy was not a screaming dish rag. ...more

This has been on my TBR for awhile now. I was surprised at how different it was from film and have to say I like to book better. I don't know if I am just numb these days or what but I cant say that i was frightened by this book. It has a definite creep factor to it. I thought is was very well written. I'm excited to read Dr. Sleep soon! ...more
