Finders Keepers was a beautifully written murder thriller. King takes you on a wild ride with a 13 year old kid, a trunk of stolen money, the works of a famous author, scamming book salesman, and a murder most foul. I definitely give this a thumbs up. Read it if you have the chance

This book was better than the previous. I will buy Holly once it’s been out a while and can get it used. In my opinion this book series isn’t worth money for new. Not my favorite books of Stephen King. Worth a read If you’re wanting the whole picture. Much of it is just fluff.

A very enjoyable read. I couldn't read the last 100 pages fast enough.

Is it just me or is Stephen King getting better with age? His recent books have been character driven as opposed to the supernatural horror stories he released at the start of his writing career. I am not a great fan of horror as a rule but a great fan of King's writing style. Maybe that's what steering my preference.
'Finders Keepers' acts loosely as a sequel to the wonderful 'Mr Mercedes' with a few recurring characters. Its not entirely necessary to read 'Mr Mercedes' but helps to know the characters backstories and the situations they have been in before this book starts up.
I eagerly await his next novel..... :-)

A sort of sequel to Mr. Mercedes, although it is not necessary to have read Mr. Mercedes to enjoy this book.
Another of King's crime thrillers. No horror, supernatural or fantasy stuff at all.
I enjoyed this book even more than Mr. Mercedes. It is a page turner and keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end.

This book had a slower start that its previous one . Sometimes I wasn't sure I was going to finish it cause King can get get graphic during his killing scenes . I do like story about hodges from the precious book and have been in there more.

King continues to impress as time goes on, a true literary icon, in spite of the detractors.
