Who would’ve thought I wouldn’t like a book about being tied up during sex? Disappointed this wasn’t a 5/5 star

It started out as promising as Misery and Cujo but it lost much of my interest when it became too Hannibal Lecterish.

Stephen King is weird. And don’t bother watching the movie version of this - the first 10 minutes showed us it was terrible anyway.

I absolutely love this premise and a lot of the execution. Some of the content bothered me a little bit (and not in a good skin-ripping-from-hand way). I really dislike the last 30 or so pages of this book. Was not needed.
