Reviews with the most likes.
It was fascinating to read how the things are in the mind of the writer.
Absorbing mix of memoir and writing hints and suggestions that never really coheres into either a memoir or a manual. But fun anyway, as King so often is.
Believe it or not, I had never read a Stephen King book when I read this one. It's a very thoughtful book about writing, as well as an interesting memoir.
Not what I expected. It was leagues better than what I expected. It is a profoundly inspiring tale about the well-lived life of a master craftsman.
On the way, you will probably learn about yourself, as I did.
