A review by sarahoo
Imaginary Friend by Stephen Chbosky

3.0

Can definitely feel it as a love letter to Stephen King. Child on a coming of age quest with a band of brothers, fighting against forces of evil. Pretty engaging, but 2/3 the way through the book begins to drag with excess action, which I guess stands in for character development--i don't know. The book needs a stronger editor. 2/3 of the final third could go, and it would be a much better book. Worth reading, but I definitely began speed skimming to get to the end.
