I was warned that this is one of King's less enjoyed books, but I can't say that I agree. It was well written, executed perfectly and I didn't experience the usual demeaning style usually found when woman are written by men. It was amazing and a defenate recommendation to lovers of slow-paced, character based stories with upsetting themes.
