I'm picking this book simply because I am already 300 pages into this 1400 page goliath and I need a head start.

I didn't read this one, but I'm sure it's a great book (King is kind of my comforting writer, which is a little weird).
A brilliant book - one of his best, and no doubt the original source of my clown phobia!
I hadn't had a nightmare for a long time until I started reading this book.
I ended up having to stop reading his books. He has such an amazing knack for getting right under your skin & into your psyche - or at least mine!

I just finished this book a few months ago. There were lots of non-horror parts to this book, but the few truly horror scenes were seriously scary.
I read this book when I was in 5th grade. Took me the whole year to finish because of the fact I was in school and had homework to do as well.
What a beautiful book. I could hear, taste and feel this book if you know what I mean. His descriptions are brilliant. The only problem is the nightmares it has given me. Oh well, nightmares are kind of like roller coasters. Scary as hell but loads of fun.
I got about halfway through it as a teenager and had to put it down because I was scared

Whaaaat? You totally should read it, because you're right, this is a GREAT book.
I was going to read this as my Week 22 Challenge (A book that scares you), but as I was downloading the audiobook, I saw that it's a whopping 45 hours long!! I know I'm late to the game, but I'm using this as my Week 1 challenge. How long did it take you guys to finish it? How much drag should I expect in this book?
I gave up on this book halfway through. Life is too short to read books that one finds no interest in. Hope you guys had a better experience!
This was my choice for scary book just because is so long that I was scared to read, but I had to stop because its too long for me to read it in this challenge (especially because I am a slow reader) I"ll try again, but definitely not in the challenge
