Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Only so-so" for me. I've only read it once and recall being very disappointed. Not a bottom of the barrel but I have no desire to read it again.
3!
: sighs :
only bears "loved it" so far...

Not read yet, even own a very nice 1st/1st of it. On the list for this year.
Wish List:
Any of the following flatsigned or inscribed-
It, Shining, Salem’s Lot, Mr. Mercedes, The Stand
Brother ARC, Seed ARC
Only average for me. If it had been the first SK book I read, it might have taken awhile before I got around to picking up another. Definitely not below average, (we'll get to those later) but not stellar either. I will likely never reread this one.
Sloth Love Chunk
Another that I love

Just average for me. I'm still vicariously embarrassed by the "plug it up!" scene, though.
A true firewasp ninja would never wear such a ridiculous sweater.
There's logic in nonsense.
Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.

Sorry, Jean.
I would have given it a 4, but maybe only a 3. Sorry, Jean.

For me, I think it was simply that I finally read the book decades after hearing all about it and after reading a whole lot of King's later works. So it just didn't grab me the way it would have had I read it earlier.
