  1. Anyone read this? While a thickass book (like a lot of Stephen King) it is definitely a page turner. I really enjoyed it, he did a good job of threading all the different ideas in the story together.

    The time travel aspect itself he pulled off very well. The only thing that stuck in my mind was that if everything resets itself, why not save-scum cash instead of pissing the mob off thru illegal gambling?

    Spoiler:
    The payoff his betting sets up is more than worth it, though.
    Probably the funniest line in the book was a joke with the "grandfather paradox" as it's punchline. The main character asked something like, "what if you went back in time and killed your grandfather?" to which the reply was, "Why on earth would you do that?". Lol.

    Spoiler:
    The ending I wasn't so hot on. I would have preferred it if Jack had just died in crap-future Maine. The ending as it is was appropriately happy and tied things up nicely in-universe, but didn't leave me feeling satisfied.
