The Long Walk by Stephen King

This was an odd book in that the story was relatively boring (one hundred kids walked until they dropped and they would be killed), and there was not too much cahracter development, but somehow at the end of the book I thought to myself, "that was not too bad." I am not sure when it happened, when I was about halfway through I almost put it down because the story kept repeating itself, but I stuck with it, and nothing really changed, but it became better. I can not fully endorse other people reading this book, because I can see why many people would not want to or why they would nto enjoy it, but I liked it, although I can not fully explain why.

I would recommend this book, but only for someone who likes Stephen King and has already read his better ones and is just looking for some King to pass the time.
