I read this after watching the film and finding it utterly terrible. Reading a review for the book said, "not King's best novel, but even not his best are pretty darn good," which prompted me to give it a go and it was pretty good 😂 It's not amazing, but I enjoyed it and I liked the characters, especially Alice. In typical King fashion however it doesn't actually end. Just stops
