This one is pretty boring so far and a classic example of the extra bloat in King's novels: 120 pages so far of a teenager just taking care of an injured elderly man. Giving him his pills, helping him into bed, feeding his dog. Many of these things repeated multiple times. Why does this need to be there? It simply doesn't. Also King calling the internet "the Net" dates him considerably and makes me cringe slightly.

Soooo...this book is terrible. If I hadn't spent like $40 bucks on my hardcover copy years ago I would have DNF'd by now. There is a villain in here named "Mr. Ha-Ha", which really tells you all you need to know.
