Content warning Hardly a spoiler, but for those who really don't want to know *anything* about the plot

One word to describe this book:

Exhausting.

Want more? Okay, let's see . . .

Slow
Preachy
Disappointing
Unfulfilling
Masturbatory

This book is a grind, and it's filled with Christian bullshit that King lays on thick. His appearance in the book felt cheap and silly to me when I read this years ago; now, it feels like masturbation. Ah, okay, one more word to describe this book:

Icky 🤢
