I loved Big Jim Rennie, a little far fetched but King loves the sensationalism when he goes off on one. I didn't like much of the rest of the book, huge fan of his work but this did nothing for me. Interesting premise and could have done so much more, didn't identify with Barbie at all and thought his backstory was a little convenient with the whole Cheney/Bush allegory that's obviously at work.

I didn't really enjoy the book although I will say that the second half was better than the first as it was faster paced & I kept on reading because I wanted to see how it would end. What I disliked about it the most was the way his characters talked some of the dialogue made me cringe. This is the first Stephen King I've read in a long time & although I have read & enjoyed some of his earlier work I don't think I'll be picking any of his books up in the future.
