A re-read but my first time hearing the audiobook, which I will say is pleasantly great! 
A tried and true classic King novella that I find myself reading over and over again. A great start to my King reading marathon. 

I will say it is very interesting to see how the ending of the novella differs from the movie's end. While one is so bleak, the other is as well but much more imaginative and open-ended. A big recommendation for anyone needing a short yet horrifically mysterious read.
