I love that book!!! Every time someone mentions it I have to jump in and gush lol. I read it during last year's October read-a-thon, which I actually spent in a cabin in the woods! It is by far my favourite of the Stephen King books I've read so far and I feel like it's so underrated.

I don’t think I will be completing a lot of these challenges/prompts as I love to have some almost finished books for the readathon itself as it gives me a sense of accomplishment and extra incentive to read as much as I can :D
