"Meh, there are better."
Without going into the plot of this book too much, I'll say that there are far better Stephen King books. I could deal with Stephen King narrating some of the story and I actually feel like it adds to the dual perspective aspect of the book.
It's also occurred to me that I'm coming from a male point of view, and the book has a very 'women empowerment theme'. Nothing against that, but perhaps I didn't relate with the story as much as others.
