I thought this was an original way to tell a story, but by the halfway mark it became monotonous for me..and I had figured out how this book was going to finish.
I've enjoyed (almost every) Stephen King book since I read Firestarter when I was 10...but I didn't really enjoy this book, and couldn't swallow all the PC BS at the end. Maybe do yourself a favor and just skip ahead to the next book in your 'to read' list.
