I hate Umbridge more but it is close. And I loved the fact that the horror was mostly about people being terrible and not about giant dome trapping everyone. That is secondary.<br /><br />The ending though. Wasn't crazy about the ending. Sort of wish things weren't explained.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456600806188531803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-76500405353611649282017-04-13T19:13:33.233+01:002017-04-13T19:13:33.233+01:00It's not that the characters are bad or anythi...It's not that the characters are bad or anything, it was just that I got to the end and realised that I kind of felt I didn't know any of them too well and subsequently didn't care as much about them as I should? But maybe it's just meeee I am crazy.<br /><br />I have started it! I haven't gotten very far so I'm a bit like 'can we be done with the preliminaries and get into the story please?!' but I'm excited to read more :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17371636785566309578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6275165298547340568.post-88970329460621712922017-04-12T11:56:51.650+01:002017-04-12T11:56:51.650+01:00That's one of the Stephen Kings I haven't ...That's one of the Stephen Kings I haven't got around to reading yet because it is a BEAST, so I'm glad it's worth its weight, though sad it is not such a character-driven story because characters are maybe what I like best about Stephen King. And also, I see the next Devouring Stephen King read is 11.22.63 which is my FAVOURITE and I think it's in my top 5 books of all time, or at least of the present time. I wasn't overly pleased with the adaptation though - it was good but missed out most of what I loved about the book. Anyway, I hope you love it too.Katie Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00869522403254546153noreply@blogger.com
