4.5

I loved how this kicked off immediately with the dome coming down, and how the nearly 900 pages covered just over a week of under-the-dome time yet it felt really fast paced. After a few chapters I felt fully immersed in Chester’s Mill and along for the ride. 

The dome brought out the worst of the people trapped under it, and exposed the evil that was already in the works… probably one of my favourite SK novels so far!
