Bookwormjillk I liked this more when I read it as a teen I think. As an adult I thought it was too long and SK was a bit too much with some of the sidebars. It read very late 70‘s early 80‘s to me. Still King do readable but not a favorite. 10h
BarkingMadRead @Bookwormjillk 💯 could have been a short story! 9h

JenlovesJT47 I enjoyed this and am looking forward to the movie adaptation! It is one long existential crisis that fills you with dread. 9h
AllDebooks I did not like this. I found it repetitive and overlong. It certainly was tense and horrifying. I agree, @BarkingMadRead it would be better as a concise short story. 9h
5feet.of.fury I didn‘t like it either. Weird side note though, there was a 20 mile race that went from Kittery Maine to Salisbury Massachusetts and goes through the part of Rt1 NH that they were on at one point. I was there once also trying to beat an aggressive time cut off 7h

Initially read this years ago, had almost forgotten how great it was - knew I liked it, but I hadn't remembered the intensity of the boys.

It was kismet that one of my co-workers (who saw me reading) had also randomly picked this one up! So we have been discussing too!

Picture from one of the protests (felt like it belonged here)

This is the lower end of the pick scale for me because I don‘t think it needed to be this long. King could have conveyed everything — the tediousness, the hardships, and the slow descent into madness for some of characters of the long walk — in a novella. I‘m also not sure how I feel about the ending.

I‘ll read the next book, but didn‘t love the feeling that this book doesn‘t really stand on its own.

Misery | Stephen King

I don't even know how to properly rate Stephen King novels at this point; I have yet to find one that I don't like, so I tend to just compare to other King books I've read. Misery is a classic, and I finally understand why.
