A review by danixwrites
Bag of Bones by Stephen King
3.0
I wanted to rate this higher, the plot was good, but I have found that in King’s detailed writing style, he kind of takes away from what should be a pretty terrifying book. I teetered back and forth and I’m settling on 3 stars. This is a paranormal story, I am a CHICKEN, & the spooky stuff was the easy parts to get through.
The plot is so good, the story should be amazing, but SK has the tendency to drone on and on about nothing and it really takes away from the story and my attention started to drift a bit.
If you like Stephen King, this is gonna be a 5 star for you.
Long chapters, long-winded thought processes on the main character’s part (that shouldn’t make sense with the fast paced environment that he is usually in) & so detailed it might physically hurt a bit.
Plenty of TRIGGER WARNINGS to go around:

- Paranormal activity
- child violence (drownings)
- semi vivid rape
- kidnapping
- gore & gun violence
- suicidal ideation
- racism from the true antagonists
