I can't believe it's taken me this long to read this novel. Stephen King is the greatest.

Embracing my fascination over Charles Manson-esque cults and loving every moment.

"I can pinpoint that as the single happiest moment of my life, because I realized then that Mom would always have my back. It made me feel giant. I raced back down the concrete ramp, faster than I ever had before, so fast I should have fallen, but I didn't fall, because Mom was in the world."
