dark tense

3.0

Easy to read but I wasn't super into the ending, and a lot of things were repetitive. Super slow then all too fast.

This book was beyond boring. I expected more out of Stephen King. The ending was horrible too. I should’ve known a book about walking would’ve been bad. 

I don’t even understand how Stebbins died. It made no sense.

empathreads's review against another edition

The reason I couldn't finish the book "The Long Walk" by Stephen King is that I got bored halfway through. I found myself trying to convince myself numerous times to continue, but ultimately, I had to admit that it wasn't my cup of tea. The constant scenarios in the story seemed useless and didn't capture my attention. Additionally, I felt that the pacing of the narrative wasn't to my liking, making it challenging to maintain my interest in the book.
