Review
Omg omg. I finished this book several weeks ago and even though I have been stupidly busy with life, I STILL can’t get over this book. This is probably one of my favorite Stephen King books. I haven’t read that many, but from the ones I have read I feel like he writes the characters that are kids so well. This book was like reading a nightmare I’ve had (don’t eat chips and salsa before bed people) come to life.
This book was long, like “holy shit I’m never going to find time to read this” type long. However, that didn’t stop me from staying up late several nights to keep reading. I did have to go back go through beginning because I forgot who the hell Tim(my brain is fried so the name might be wrong) was. I know that some people will think it’s like X-Men or something ,but it had its own driving force. It did remind me a little bit of another book I read called The Inspection, but even so I was hooked!!! Oh sooo good and I would die to see this as a movie. |
