This was one of those books where I had to read all the way to the end to know how I felt about it and unfortunately it was a disappointment. I was into the story at first and wanted to know how it was going to play out. I wanted to know what the point was. The more I read the more I just wanted it to be over. I was kind of into it but also bored at the same time. It was drug out too much. It didn't need to be as long as it was and even still, once I finished it, I was left still wanting to know the point. For a book called Insomnia the majority of the book was about abortion and religion. I was expecting a book about insomnia and what happens to people who experience it and I guess we did kind of get that but not in the way I expected. Sometimes I wish King would write a book that didn't deal with any kind of supernatural elements because there have been several times where I have read one of his books and said the supernatural elements ruined the book for me and that's kind of the case with this one. Definitely not a favorite King but at least I can mark it off my list now.
