Mr. Gaunt comes to town, opens a shop, Needful Things, and sells people exactly what they want....for a price of course. But that price isn't entirely money. Part money, part deed or trick really. And he always knows exactly what people want.
I really enjoyed the writing, the characters, the plot. Everything really. I liked the messages I got through-out the book and how it made me think. I didn't care for the ending though and, to me, it felt like it lost a bit of the point. A bit too...reli ...more

This is now one of my favorite Stephen King reads so far! All the aspects that make his books so appealing to me are here - the horror, the unbelievable and unexplainable, the setting that I always feel so connected to, the good vs evil standoff, and best of all, the amazing characters who are so relatable and real. This one is well worth the time investment needed for such a long book. Now, on to the next As I try to read through all of his books in publication order.

I'm always so delighted when the Lovecraft mythos makes an appearance. Yog'sothoth rocks! i liked all the Cujo references and all the others he made (the dead zone, idk what all else).
