Joyce Carol Oates is usually a pretty solid writer, but this book felt like she was trying to write about the horrors of plagiarism by lightly plagiarizing from both Stephen King's The Dark Half and Secret Window Secret Garden.

panDid not enjoy this. Plot was flimsy. I feel like this was an ode to a type of literature or a joke with Stephen King that I'm just not getting, but I dunno. Didn't work for me for a lot of reasons and the one subplot that was interesting to me was just left hanging.
