This was my first Stephen King book. I’m not into horror and so I’ve never thought to look into his other writing. Billy Summers was a good story- but my interest in the plot waned at times…. And I gotta say that I’m really not a fan of how it ended!!
I also could have done without all the anti-Trump tirades woven into the story. After the 4th mention, I began a tally count. By the end of the book, I was at 12.
