Word of caution, as I don't have the energy right now to be able to list <i>all</i> the content and trigger warnings this book contains, I do NOT recommend this as someone's first Stephen King novel. This is extremely heavy and dark, and arguably too much to start with if you want to get into his works. If you've already read a few of his other books, especially any of the others set in the town of Castle Rock, then you should be okay.
