I literally had September 10th circled on my calendar as the day, The Institute, came out. Nothing disappointing here. Although not a horror story, (no monsters or jump scares here) the uneasy imagery of violence illustrated throughout the novel are fairly straightforward and gripping. A strong 5 stars to an absolute must read for Stephen King fans.

"I'm not sending a 12 year old half way across the country to live with college kids old enough to drink and go to the clubs."
Greer sighed. "We're talking about a boy for whom the IQ scale is useless. He knows where he wants to go. He knows what he needs."
