It's not one of my favorites, but I did enjoy it more than I expected.

Another one I've only read once. I recall thinking the first half of the book or so was really intriguing but then it sortof went downhill. I don't actually remember much detail about the plot and I don't remember any of the characters at all. I did give it a 3.5, because I do recall that the story hooked me pretty well--at least for the first 2/3 of the book.
Very enjoyable, but a bit o.t.t.; a 4.
sk
4
not a 5 only because, as divemaster said, it went downhill at some point.

4.5. Would be a 5 if not for the last 10 pages or so. One of the worst endings EVER!
if you mean
the flying horses and shit
then yes

3. This was one SK novel that I actually put down midway through, and didn't pick it up again for a month. The inter-connectedness of all of the anonymous pranks, which King wove to bring Castle Rock to critical mass, grew a bit tiresome. I finished it, and enjoyed the remainder of the book; but it's not one that I'd likely pick up again.
