I have mixed feelings when it comes to this book.
There were passages that I enjoyed A LOT, and would incline me to rate it incredibly high. But there were also pages where I felt the story was not as strong, especially once we knew what was going to happen, what Louis was going to do all along. I personally thought that around 80 to 100 pages could've been more fast paced and to the point.
I really liked that instead of being horror centered on paranormal stuff, it's more focused on death, which can be terrifying and way more relatable than ghosts and all those creepy creatures we can find in books like this. I found some really interesting pieces on death and bereavement in this book that truly exemplify how a person deals with death and the toll it can take on a group of individuals.
Overall, I would recommend this book to a lot of people, and I found it way more enjoyable and appealing than past Stephen King stories I've read.
