A review by paracosm
'Salem's Lot by Stephen King
3.0
This could have been a lot better. It started okay, nothing really outstanding but I was invested in the story. The main problem is that it's just too long, my copy is over 500 pages. The book wastes plenty of time in uninteresting things that don't matter, including detailed descriptions of what people were having for lunch.
When I was around two thirds in I was completely done with the book and only wanted for it to end. The only character I has a semblance of investment in was Mark, but I'm sure I'll forget his name in no time. There are definitely better Stephen King books out there.
