J'ai beaucoup aimé. Les personnages sont vraiment très bien écrits et très intéressants. Il y avait des moments où je trouvais que c'était long mais je comprends que c'est important, pour montrer à quel point l'enfer que vivait Paul était long.

King's talent really shines through in this one and has not only a compelling plot but also a great amount of metaphorical depth. For those who loved 'The Shining', there is also a fun Overlook Easter egg hidden in there.

el libro engancha, la descripciones no son densas y te tiene en vilo todo el tiempo x la vida de paul. me gustó, tiene un libro dentro de otro libro y eso fue interesante porque ayuda a entender un poco más los arranques de annie. el libro consiguió darme asco y sentir tensión, además de tener la necesidad de, por momentos, saber qué va a pasar después. al ser el personaje principal un escritor, fue interesante ver los tips que daba y cómo se sentía, plus ver cómo se degrada su situación mental y cómo va para peor. el final fue acertado, paul sobrevive pero sumamente traumado. me hizo decir "esta tipa no puede estar tan loca" más de una vez. la dinámica me entretuvo, qsy, estuvo bien.

If you're a writer?  This book is about a writer's worst nightmare.  And King does this sort of thing so very well!
