    Now that I've read it... If I could still vote on this one, I'd give it a 5.

    If you don't see me posting when the poll is open, set yourself a reminder to smack me upside the head to wake me up.



    Fantastic story. I'm at an age and experience level now that I appreciate the telling far more than I did when I first read it 20 or so years ago.

    Yeah, it really is one of those stories that probably speaks more to a more mature or life-experienced reader than one expecting "King horror." This is one of those books that confirms how well King knows human character. It will always be near the top of my King list.

    Which is ironic, considering King was so young when he wrote it. Personally, this was probably one of my least favorites. Just couldn't connect with it.
