    I was skeptical as well but I'm about half through it and find it very good. Haven't had much time the past couple day to read so I'm not done as I'd hoped to be by now. It seems that this is the point in the book that it's going to hit overdrive and not stop until the end.

      It seems that most people who read this already, love it.

        Yeah, I'm really looking forward to reading this one.

          Just watched that trailer - looks pretty good - I should probably pre-order as the local store (chain) has it online for rewards members for a very good price.

            It's gotta be better than Doctor Sleep.

              Just finished and though it's not perfect, I enjoyed it.....and yes, for me it was better than Doctor Sleep.

                For those of us without a Proof nor ARC, there's an excerpt in the new issue of Entertainment Weekly.









                It continues on for a couple double-columned pages.

                  Cool, I hope my wife didn't throw it away already. If not, I must hang on to it for my collection

                      Is there any AA or overtly Christian themes in this one?

                        I only remember one direct reference to AA but there is a fair amount of drinking. I think I understand where the concerns are originating (DS), but it's nothing like that.
                        If there was anything referencing religion, I don't recall it.

                          No, almost none.

                              At 9% into the book (according to the Kindle), the only thing that's bugging me is how they keep referring to a Mercedes SL500 as a twelve-cylinder. That's something that should never have made it past the editors. The SL600 had the V12.

                                I have my pre-order waiting at my local Chapters - will be grabbing it either on lunch break today, or right after work.
