⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A book that I loved, an absolute must read, and now a favorite of mine. It's a book that will live on my shelves forever and I would re-read in the future. I would pick up anything else by this author without question. This book is now one of my all-time favorites.

This is the second book I've read by Stephen King and I loved them book. I was invested in the characters from the very start. More so Paul than Annie. I rooted for him to come out of his downward spiral of insanity as he was held captive by Annie.

I even got invested in the story within the story. Misery's story.

I'm very happy that I finally picked this one up. I'm starting to see why King is my husband's favorite author.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This book was absolutely breathtaking. I LOVED it. The characters were memorable and had distinct voices. The plot line of this book held my attention and was unique, and the pacing was fantastic. These books often stay with me for a long time. After finishing, I can't stop thinking about it. An absolute must read, and now a favorite of mine. Highly Recommended!

This was literary perfection. The characters, the plot, the drama, the intensity. All of it was beautifully written.

This was the first fantasy book I've read and I was not disappointed. I can't wait to continue the series.

⭐⭐⭐
This book is good and worth reading. I enjoyed it but it felt a little lacking. I may recommend it to a certain audience. It gave me mixed feelings, possibly with potential it didn't quite live up to. It's a good experience, not amazing, but not bad.

⭐⭐⭐⭐
I really like this book . It's a very enjoyable story, but just short of epic. Certain areas may not be as fulfilling as they could have been. I'm not quite as captivated or blown away, but still had a great experience. I'd recommend this book to others and continue reading from this author. I would probably re-read it.

Ladies and gentlemen, this book had me in a CHOKEHOLD!

I might never recover from this one.

I read this book every single chance I got, and when I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about reading it.

The people wanted more drama, and George R.R. Martin DELIVERED!

I've never read a series where each book is better than the previous one. The families are so messy, and I am LIVING FOR IT. In this story, I feel like we really get a deep dive into what each character is like and the reasons for the things that they do or have done.

I honestly thought GRRM couldn't surprise and shock me any more than he already has, but let me tell you, I was wrong! I WAS SO VERY, VERY WRONG!

I will tell you right now that if you are looking to see more Theon Greyjoy or Ramsey Bolton in this book, you will be disappointed. Only in that aspect, though, because this book is phenomenal with a capital P.

The pettiness has been upped a notch in this one, my friends. It is messy, petty, sloppy, and dramatic all at once.

Two thumbs up is not enough for this story. GRRM gave us pure perfection on the pages.
