Stephen King can be so funny sometimes when he’s just narrating the story but he sucks at writing intentionally funny characters/moments. Richie is funny in the movies, but his character feels underdeveloped on paper, and the other characters laugh at the most random, dry stuff. I feel like a party pooper but bro, the jokes are dry. Also, Stan feels like a side character, which is deeply upsetting💔

Omfg Stephen King needs to stop even MENTIONING women in his books. The descriptions are unnecessary and disgusting.

“If fiction and politics ever really do become interchangeable, I’m going to kill myself” LMAOOO what is Bill on abt, I’m getting second hand embarrassment😭

Stephen King is brilliant with his character introductions. I didn’t expect to enjoy his writing style or narration this much

I know it’s a horror book but it’s got such a cozy vibe to it and I’m SO excited for the rest. My edition is nearly 1400 pages though and feels like a brick🫩
