The Green Mile is now my 3rd favorite King novel. Never thought my top 5 would ever change. Masterpiece

As Duma Key is easily in my top five King books, I should give a warning that it starts off quite slowly. I personally enjoy it, but it takes like 500 pages to really get going. Has quality atmosphere beforehand, though.

And I'm not trying to diss the book, but I know multiple people who couldn't get into it because it started off slow, so just fair warning.

and usually I'm pretty good with slow starts, but that was achingly slow even for King.

Not the most fucked up thing he's written, but it is a what the fuck moment for sure.
