This book, which I read as part of The Grand Stephen King Experiment at TannerWillbanks.com, was brutal. Perhaps it is because he was writing as Richard Bachman or perhaps it was just because he was feeling extremely dark that year but whatever it was Stephen King wrote a bleak, depressing little novel here. While I ultimately enjoyed the book, it was rough to slog through it.
