I thought this book dragged on way longer than it really should of. Detective like novels aren't really ones I'm all that familiar with, but I do know that you don't mention the who done it in the first few chapters. The first half of the book dragged on and on, and I was like "Come on, King, I don't care about all these details." The second half did pick up some, and I liked when Bill started to work with Holly, but I'm not sure I'd read another King wanna be detective novel.
