‘1922’ has all of Stephen King’s usual trademarks. It was disturbing, dark, and gritty. It didn’t have any specific triggering or overly horrid scenes like some of his longer books (such as Under The Dome) and that’s not to say that this book doesn’t have dark scenes. I just wasn’t left with a disgusting feeling afterward. 

I will say that this book, despite being 120ish pages, is rather long-winded and slow. The writing is good though and it pulls you into the story. I didn’t put down the book until I finished it.
