I think every book has a flavour or is like a dish, and to me, classic King is like a plate of carbonara: satisfying/filling, savoury, comforting, and with occasional extra tasty morsels while being consistent overall. It really is a shame so much of his post-cocaine, post-accident work is bland or full of Covid/political stuff you could break a tooth on.

1980s Stephen King: Little boys are amazing. Little girls are petty, bratty, annoying little bitches that you can't help wanting to strangle.

Wonder how his daughter felt, growing up...
