LATER by Stephen King

Wow, what a ride! I give it 4.5 outta 5 stars (I give five 5 stars about as often as there's a harvest moon). The one line I disagreed with was that literary agents don't have friends; I dunno, they're salespeople, and in my experience, those in sales make friends easily. Another reason for 4.5 stars is that it felt like the story took place in the late 20th century, even though King stated it was around 2010.

Regardless, great novel! I started Saturday afternoon and finished Monday night. That's quick for me. Doubt I'll reread it like Joyland, but Later will probably make a home in my subconsciousness for a long time.
