5feet.of.fury A surprisingly short King! I found it really slow to start. But once we got to Annie & Mike I really enjoyed it. 2y
BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury sometimes King can start off soooooo slow, but once he hits his stride it‘s go time! This is definitely one of those times 2y
BookwormAHN Loved it. And for a short book the story was really well woven. 2y
NikkiM5 Agreed, it took a minute to get going. But that usually makes me excited, his slow starts always lead to deep character development. It was a joy (teehee) to read, and I love how it fits in King‘s Universe. Off the top of my head, The Shining and The Institute. 2y
BarkingMadRead @NikkiM5 I love when he drops those little Easter eggs in there 2y
bthegood @BarkingMadRead @5feet.of.fury @BookwormAHN @NikkiM5 I feel King is just a good story teller - he builds up the suspense, he develops the characters - in the end it all comes together without a character having to explain why everything happened or how it happened. 2y
BarkingMadRead @bthegood yes! He‘s definitely a master at that!! 2y
Bklover I think my favorite thing about him is how familiar his characters always feel. I love this one! 2y
Bklover @bthegood Exactly! 2y
bthegood @Bklover yes - the reader feels like they know the characters - you get invested in the story because you are invested in the characters - 2y
