6/30/2023 0 Comments The dome novel![]() I don't know what else to say about this book, it was really, really good but it's not something I'd recommend for some light reading. Under the Dome is a 2009 sci-fi novel by Stephen King. Which, I kinda liked though! The reason you hate him (or I hated him) was not so much all the bad stuff he did, though that was awful too, but having to hear him say "cotton-picking" over and over and over again almost made me wanna scream. ![]() Though I sort of hoped one certain character would have gotten what he deserved earlier, or in a different way. ![]() I guess it did end the only way it could. I mean the solution to the big mystery wasn't amazing but it worked and after everything that happened. no, I liked it, which I kinda didn't expect. 11/22/63 was definitely good in spite of the changes they made. I use 11/22 as my example of a good adaptation and under the dome as the exact opposite. I honestly considered going on Wikipedia just so I could spoil the ending and not have to live in a constant state of anxiety anymore. For me, at least half the reason that story is creepy is because there is a young psychopathic serial killer under the dome with everyone else in the little town. Honestly, never in my life have I been so stressed out as I was reading this book. I mean, I did read 1200 pages in 5 days, which should tell you how hard it was to put down. ![]()
