Wow, I didn't like this book at all. I only finished reading it because I really did want to know the end, but the story dragged and it was just too much of the same thing. Maybe there's some deeper meaning, I dunno, but yuck. I cannot believe I found a King novel I didn't really really like! But this was a stinker for me.

More cerebral than Christine - I enjoy it when everything isn't quite all the way explained... Note: Has tie-ins to the Dark Tower series!

Like a fine wine, I am pleased to see that King only gets better with age. A frightening book indeed, the kind of fear that shakes up your moral core. No perfunctory scare in this book.

A reviewer stated that the story went slow. What I say is that the Buick 8 was stored for at least 2 decades and things happened over that period. I liked the book. What I didn't like was what happened to the barracks dog. Then again I am a dog lover. I occasionally read his books. I didn't know what to expect with this book, but I read it during the day, just in case it got really bad. lol How come things look better during the day but it doesn't at night???

Only Stephen King can get away with writing TWO books about a possessed car.
