This was a pretty damn good book! I wasn't sure what to expect. I have never particularly been a Stephen King fan, but you can mark me as a fan of Joe Hill! This book got right to the point. The haunting kicked off within 30 pages and it was creepy and intense! The ghost was a unique take that still felt classic, and the way the story unfolded was phenomenal. The characters were flawed but still people i could relate to and wanted to succeed. Also an aging rock star as a main character? That was so much fun!! I still never got fully scared though so for this one I'm going to say 8/10! I am definitely going to pick up more from Joe Hill!
