5.0
This could very well be the best standalone book I’ve ever read. As always, King does a fantastic job of writing characters that feel grounded in a world where vampires live amongst us. The backdrop of the Lot is the perfect setting - dark and ominous with the mysteries of the Lot looming above all of the citizens. I foresee myself picking this up again and again in the fall.
