4.0
A collection of short stories by the master of macabre, Stephen King. Some quick and punchy, others are novella length stories with deep character backstories and winding plots. These are indeed darker, but not in the way his previous horror stories have been. Tinged with sadness, You Like it Darker laments the passage of time and explores what happens to the road we don’t choose to travel.
