I've not seen the movie, but the novel is complex and rewarding. It does address some of the tough issues surrounding incarceration and the death penalty. That's okay, the issue is addressed from many sides and is enlightening.

This is an AMAZING book and probably one of the few that the movie brings it to life. You feel for every one of the characters that the author brings vividly to real life.

Better than the movie. I am not much of a Steven King fan, but this book I did not want to put down.

There is so much feeling in these pages, that it is hard to describe. You will feel lots of emotion while reading this book. This is a book about the supernatural, as opposed to straight-up horror. True to King's style are the characters...you love them or you hate them. You always care about his characters one way or the other. There is no indifference while reading a Stephen King book and this book is probably the best example of that.

I like the story. I would have rated higher, but I found the profanity and crude language quite distracting.
