Wish this was even longer

Oh I enjoyed a good yarn. Which is my own criteria for a great book. And I found this yarn interesting to the last page. I just love you, Stevie King!

Interesting

This was a familiar premise and King acknowledged this but of course it has the King touch.

Just another awesome read by Stephen King!

Captivating characters and a shorter read. You never know what you are going to get from Stephen King's mind. Recommended for fans old and new!

Solid story telling

I enjoyed this book more than I expected. Solid story, interesting characters, good spooky horror that hearkens back to King's earlier work and short story/novella formats.

Wasn’t sure what to expect, but thoroughly entertaining read!

I’ve never read a “hard case crime” novel before. But I like Stephen King’s work as do most so I figured I’d check it out. The book starts out a bit odd for my taste, King writing as a 4 year old boy is kind of unsettling. But as he gets older the writing itself begins to come together a bit more. The book is about Jamie retelling this story from his child hood and even mentions at the end that his writing improved as he went. All that aside I really enjoyed the book. There were even some parts of it that paid homage to “It” which I thought was really cool. And the twist at the end was Stephen King at his finest. I hope this isn’t the last time we hear from Jamie!
