It's a fantastic read all the way through, but I think the last two chapters may have convinced me that this is one of the best books Stephen King has ever written. The past paragraph actually gave me chills.
Every person in this book fights so hard to stay alive and by the end of it all you're just left wondering why.
Dit boek is alle sterren van het universum waard..
Damn wat een goed boek, zeker een aanrader!!!
Un roman de Stephen King que j'avais bien aimé à l'époque où je l'avais lu. Marquant, par son cadre, ses personnages et son récit.
