Stephen King wrote a fantastic book here. The book is even more incredible knowing it came from his own personal greatest fear. There is so much to understand with this book and I think I will need to read it again. Even just the Paul Sheldon name sounds so similar yet different from Stephen King. Its the opposite of it so cleanly that it sounds the same. Stephen King is an amazing author. I am only afraid that his other books won’t top this one.
