Actually Reading the Book I’m Named After (And All of Stephen King’s Other Work)

Before reading: Well, well, well. Here we are. The book that started it all. The one that I am named after. I feel like I have a lot I want to say but I think I'll wait until I finish reading. Now, of course I know what this one is about. To be honest, I have started reading this book a couple times. I have even started watching the movie a couple times. I have never been able to finish either one. I wouldn't consider this one to be something that I would choose to read.

Therefore, I am going in with an open mind and open heart and hope to leave having enjoyed the book I just read. And if not, I won't be too disappointed as my expectations are not set too high. Well...which was it? Did I love it or did I hate it? After reading: Well. That was a book. It was...fine. I will say that it took me a very long time to read and I was very happy to finally be finished with it. That being said, I didn't hate it. I'm not a critical reader by any means, so it re...
