It was… fine. Gratuitously violent, wayyyy too long, and the “reasons” were ridiculous. I have never written a CW list this long, and I hope to god I will never write one this long again.

Stephen King could’ve made a point here, but he threw it all away for some

goddamn fucking aliens

so, overall, the book was just… meh 🤷🏼‍♀️
