So, question: What is the purpose of the Penguin Classics edition giving away the plot twist at the beginning of the book? Genuinely asking because even as an educational copy, that makes... little to no sense to me.

I forgot how much Stephen King’s likes to put a lot of information about things. Either of characters in the story or characteristics about the town that the story is taking place. Since this is sort of my second book reading King’s books, I was ready to chuck this book across the room because I felt it was very slow getting somewhere. But now after an attack of two young boys that go missing and one appears, but comes back with some side effects from his disappearance is when things starts happening. Like I said it’s only the second book I read of Stephen King, but let me ask this to anybody who has read more than three books of Stephen King, does a story only start getting good when you hit 26% or 30% into the story? Just something to know so I could be prepared next book I read of his. 😂😂😂
