I genuine did not care for the story until 2/3 of the way through only to be incredibly underwhelmed by the “twist” ending. The story itself could have been cut in half and changed nothing to the overall plot…

This was a quick and guilty read that could be boiled down to several cliches and used tropes in the mystery/horror genre. Predictable or not, I‘ll probably still be scrounging library aisles for the sequel.

I can‘t believe it‘s taken me so long to read this considering my undying love for all things Stephen King. I‘m only 1/3 way through and I still have no idea what‘s going on in this town (no spoilers please!)
