I'm not fully certain if I really enjoyed this book, or just kind of like it.
The ending is honestly probably one of my favorite endings by King, but unlike The Stand, I'm not as impressed by the world and character development. A bunch of meth heads on a power trip, trapped inside a dome, with one veteran, who could have really helped the town survive and make it out relatively safe, but... Meth.
