    4.5

    Love it, but there are some bears love even more

    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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Also wanted to go with 4.5 but had to go with 5. One of King's best, back to back with The Shining.

    Gave it a 4.5 Was debating between that and 5, but there's many others that I love more.

    I think I've reserved about 7-8 King novels as "5-star." This is one of them. Absolutely delivers the goods.
