Another amazing story by King. I will say that this one has an incredible movie adaptation that feels perfect. I almost prefer the movie over the book just because the book has some poorly aged moments & King’s common brand of sexism. Regardless of its relatively minor (in presence) flaws, it really is a worthwhile read. This was the first story I ever properly read of King’s and it is a great memory.
