I'm not a huge fan of Stephen King's writing I guess...so mediocre. And I didn't like the style of the book, with all the constant random thoughts, although I appreciate what he was trying to do. Still, the concept is ambitious, even if it wasn't handled super skillfully. And there are some great lines in here. But the movie was far better.
