I watched the Swedish adaptation of this movie, so it was unfortunately a bit like rewatching the movie. That adaptation is extremely close to the book! I should’ve waited longer to read the book so that it would all read as new. I don’t think enough is added by reading the book to really make it worth reading and watching close together.

Having said that, it’s a great genre read. This book reads like Stephen King at his best. Similar style, multiple POVs, gory, a little too long.
