That is what Mikey said when I finished Song of Susannah. I read from 6 pm last night until just after midnight. I woke up this morning and picked up where I left off, stopping only momentarily throughout the day. I couldn't stop reading. The story constantly pulls me along, demanding that I read just one more page, promising amazing revelations just around the corner. And BOY did it deliver.
I am not going to say anything more. I don't want to tell anyone (Yes, that means YOU, Mikey.) anything that would make the story less surprising. All I will say is that I can't imagine what it must have taken to write this book. That's all. If you read it, you will understand. If you don't, then it doesn't matter to you anyway.
Oh. I will say one more thing. Even if you think you don't like Stephen King - even if you think you don't like horror - you should read this book. It is something else.
**It's actually only about 400 pages. Nothing compared to some of King's big books.
