My poor hair almost all got pulled out from the intensity of it all.
Biggest criticism: the ending happened too quickly. A habit of Mr King.
Also this has every single major trigger warning you can think of. If you are someone who needs content warnings for your own mental safety and security, this is NOT the book for you! If you like fucked up shit and to experience triggering things then give it a go

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

This is a character study on steroids. Not just for the sheer volume of characters (around 100?!?!?) but the way the small town being trapped under an impentratable dome accelerated the paths each character was already on. The ultimate character crucible. Trapped in such a finite space, this work is also a commentary about how fast we are accelerating our own ending -- between emissions, thoughtless consumption of resources, and general disregard for an environment that is perhaps more fragile than would seem.
